We have a buck that just came down with diarreaha, he did it once in the summer as well. could this be from worms or possibly from the rut we havent changed his diet any. what is something we can do if this doesnt dry up soon he still eats good just has no hard stools. Thanks in advance
 
Howdy neighbor. BO?? lots possible. rut wears them out!!immune down,dont eat near as much grain, but still chow on greens, too many possible,, Any clover? would get him wormed for sure,i worm least 3 times yr needed or not, only dirrea i ever saw in 4 yrs, is been from DIET!! been lucky! that first thing i look see! if continues, get him some Spectam scour halt, or go feed store see what they got. but i think he just a buck.trying hard to gain back some lost in rut, now he loading up on green,( My ) morn thought Only, Get him on a good quality protien feed, since they dont eat much now.they need Best! Nutrition Before and after,is needed Dc Ps hope all bred so it dont start again in few Days, little rest deserved:D BOL you will know if AI took Soon! or live.
 
I also had doe fawn(6 months old) come down with scours. She doesnt have appetite like she usually does . Her ears are up but shes just not the same deer as she usually is. Tried to give her some scour stop through bottle but shes just not hungry enough to take it. Thanks for any suggestions any of you may have. Shes in pen with other doe fawns and nothing has changed recently (food,water,surroundings etc..)
 
take a stool sample to any vet and have them check for everything. then you will at least know what to treat for.

Have had one with scours for months and have had trouble getting rid of coccid, worms, strongiles. Tried 3 different types of wormers, corid in water, oral drench and on and on. Last sample he said that the levels were alot better but he was still worried about the scours and told me to give 3cc of Baytril sq , did this sat. and am in a wait and see mode.

always gave probis after any meds
 
I"ve had deer with poop all down their legs and have had very good luck getting rid of the scours with this treatment. I had a doe that had poop down her legs for a month and finally had a chance to get her in the handling facility and gave her the following.



The treatment is as follows;

Worm the animal with Cydectin pour on at a double dose.

Give shot of Micotil 300 as directed on dosage weight



The doe got a second shot of Micotil with a dart. When I darted her 48 hours later I could see the back end of her was dry. A week later she was fine and pelleting.



I had a few elk calves which also had a scour problem and just darted them with Micotil and they were pooping pellets a few days later. What can you lose it might work for you if it's the same problem.



I would like to add that Micotil is a drug that can kill people so be very careful with it's use.
 
:eek:Thats what makes this work we all got a remedy that has worked. I gotta say james that is the most right thing to do. or yor throwing med cabinet at them.i think the whole industry is pretty guilty of this, Just worm ,try this try that, which sometimes you need try something,till test back, but when keeps up test. for die. Bad practice Just worming. and throwing meds at,em just to many remedies to try all. we adopted trying Joes recipe, then Bill, and So on. test ,test!! vets need learn something! about deer :D but we seem not to get this done IM plum GUILTY I AM:eek. Dbcooke i hope you get few more opinions that only mine before coffee :eek: they run test after test on me hopefully they get it right Quick!! you got two choices throw Meds or test! Dc
 
what do you all think is the best way to worm------

Pour on

shot

drench

I understand it may depend on how you can get it done but saying I can do any of the above?
 
I would vote shot would be best because you're controlling exactly the amount of drugs you want to get in them. Medicated feed would be my second choice and pour on mixed with corn, third.
 
I would think Shot More effective, But that and feed, and water.all i ever did ,Just worm, No test Ever.Deer Look Great. Dont know! Dc (EDIT) same selection As Steve.
 
WOW Back up Dc, i disagree with what i said!!! one can be as effective as other. according to if good dose and Type worm .i know i seen great results in feed But i double and triple with very little other grain most sweet dont feed for. well till Gone!! corn oil sure help. for three days they get plenty. for stomach worms and others i think feed best for stomach worm..:confused: I play tough Dc

I think oral wormers are best because you get a straight to the gut, quick kill. Injectable wormers are going to take longer to get absorbed, get metabolized and then get to the parasite. This could, over time, result in the parasites becoming resistant to that particular wormer because it lingered in the system longer. Oral (drench, feed through or paste) get in and get out a lot faster. Any wormer can develop resistance, which is why it is important to get a fecal float done, so that you know which one to use. And as for routine worming, rotate products to help slow down the resistant tendancy.
 
Robert, I used a very short needle dart with side discharge. So I think most if not all Micotil ended up under the skin. I have only injected about twelve like this over a two year period. I have had no negative responce from this and all animals did cure up from scours. In fact the elk cured up the scours without Cydectin wormer given to them.



I have also used Micotil mixed with the milk in one bottle baby this year and it also cleared up the scours but it took four times.



I will state again that a study was done in Canada which I read that indicated Cydectin did get worms other wormers were missing. But one should alway change wormer so the worms don't build up any resistance.

All I can say is this has worked for me and my animals.
 
I think cydectin rank one of Best! never used just heard two much. I do feed and water and when darted always dose with ivomec. and usually buck before antler. plus the feed! and dart if i hear any cough.or any not right.and dose any leaving. i read many times Safegaurd and corrid in many southern states from goat farmers, Inaffective, Dont work,no more.:eek:
 
right, if the cause are intern parasites i would recommend give orally, second opinion SQ it works very well, but all depends what`s the parasit you want to fight!
 
Thanks for posting on which method of worming. Oral was my choice but wasn't sure because of their fast digestive system.

The vet also said to use Cydectin, it seems to get the tough ones
 
Positive plus goat works great, safe for pg does,I saw This work! :eek: i know this work Too.levamosile hog in water.it get worm safegaurd DONT.dont use in heat. i saw these work! only heard get worm safegaured dont!. cant remember for sure but one brought out warble Fly larvae:eek: and only read that safegaured dont work in some southern states!! i do still rotate with it:confused:
