[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 73137, member: 637"] I use sulfa based boluses every 12 hours if they are beginning to feel bad and have a mess all over their backsides. It should come out like yellow paste, not a watery mucus flecked with green and yellow. I don't want them to reach the point that they are too weak to get up. Seems their bowel movement becomes more liguid as the start nibbling on the spring grasses and nibble on solid foods. I just keep a close eye on them at that point. When they seem to want to lay down more, and their walk is dragging, that is when I treat. I have seen them just get loose for a few days then clear up on it's own. I had rather be safe than sorry and lose one knowing I could have prevented it. [/QUOTE]
