2 Doe showed early EHD signs this summer, administered Dex & Excede,both pulled through.



A week following, noticed 1 of the 2 doe seemed to be having difficulty carrying her back end with very little mobile coordination. To add when she walked her joints sound as if they were popping. IF I recall correctly, 2 weeks with no improvement administered Banamine,

B12 IM, Penicillin & BoSe but still functioning basically the same to date. Most recent, discovered her walking flat on the heels of all 4 hooves, hooves are unusually long, cracked & busted up. She isnt malnourished or dehydrated dispite the issues mentioned, seems in over all good health.



With that being said, 2nd doe within the past few days has "congested" puffy eyes,weak stiffness in her back end & walking flat on heels of hooves.



Ive read a few threads that narrowed this down to either selenium deficiency and/or nervous damage caused by the initial EHD??!!?



Both does ARE bred so main QUESTION is What to safely administer without the risk of causing them to abort? BoSe, Muse(spelling?) ?? :confused:
