Years ago Sue Rieth, BI, lady with immeasurable goat knowledge told me to treat these colds with selenium injections, the vitamin B carrier was an important part of it she gave like 3 injections a week for the first week and then it I don't know it was a lot I know you can overdose selenium you might try the vitamin B complex way more than you think necessary but she did it for like a month maybe daily the first week if you just have vitamin B three times a week the next week and then weekly for 3 more weeks or something like that.

Before Fair: Not sure what all of your goats caught, but if it was a respiratory thing what I treat with prior to bringing any of my goats to a show is Inforce 3.

It won't help you now, however, we have found that coccidiosis quite often turns into an enterotoxemia problem in an older goat. Any time we have an older goat kid or an adult start to scour and we find that they have a high cocci fecal count, we treat the cocci with Toltrazuril, Biosponge, and Gentamyacin (antibiotic - oral) and then also give a shot of CD&T anti-toxin (NOT the toxiod) for possible entertoxemia if it does't resolve with the cocci treatment.
