Buck fawn got real skinny just all of a sudden, walking like his hind legs are rubber. Not sure what to do



Yesturday I caught him and gave him Vit B, Nuflor, Dex, LA200, Ivermec +, BoSe.



ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS

Bose has Selenium in it already. B-12 complex has Thiamin. I would try giving both of these. I would rather you call me to get a better picture of the problem though.

Sounds like he is weak dehydrated, Bose good idea, also give c&d anti toxin for sure, Is he scouring? My guess would be clostridium perfingens, Did you give bose at birth? If not white muscle a possibility, Good Luck!!

if it's white muscle disease, they'll walk stiff.....not weak and wobbly.

Just a suggestion!



Paste him with pro bios.

Sulpha any way you can.

1/2cc draxine. Nuflor is great for lung, Baytrile isnt working.



Follow up daily with probios. powder, in water, ect.

You can buy a E-A-D & B powder to put in his water.

Consentrate on probios after the antibiotic.
