HELP!!! kid eats but can't stand or walk
I have a 2 month old nubian. 2 days ago we noticed he wasn't walking around. his mother is sick and probably going to die-- she just lays there shes got diareah and is super skinny we've wormed her but we have no idea about her--and i thought he was just staying around her but we noticed that when we moved her he stayed and when we tried to pick him up he had no strength in his legs. now he lays there like he's on his way out his head and limbs limp but if i put feed or hay in front of him he eats it, he drinks water and i have given him some milk replacer in a bottle which he also takes. he poops laying down good solid droppings and i would imagine he also urinates laying down. please please help if you know whats up!!! also if you can respond to my main email address i would really appreciate it its ruthtel@msn.com today is monday 10/6 i hope you guys can help us!!!

We wormed our goats regurarly but we didnt alternate wormers and we lost two of our goats because of this...(im not sure if you alternate or not)but..one of them had solid dropplings, but she had a bad fever, could'nt get up and had a very rapid heart beat. One day later she died. Do they have a rattling noise in their lungs? What color is the mother's diarheah?
