Can you give this to pregnant goats or goats that could possibly be pregnant?
Yes, it should be safe for pregnant does. Usually, cocci is only a problem in kids, not adults.
I don’t see where the recipe calls for wormwood or black walnut? Is there a de wormer recipe with those ingredients that’s different than this one? Thanks!!
Oops, I was probably thinking of the herbal wormer when I replied to that comment.
This recipe is for coccidiosis, use the herbal dewormer recipe for worms.
I just edited the original reply to reflect the cocci recipe.
I have a problem with my does getting coccidiosis. How many cc’s would you recommend for a 100 lbs or a 150 lbs goat?
I would probably go with 20-50 cc’s for a goat that big. I would have a fecal test run on your goats to check for worms, adult goats don’t usually get cocci unless their immune systems are severely compromised.
Thanks. It’s the weird weather we’ve been having in our area the last couple years.
