[QUOTE="DavisBeefmasters, post: 512275, member: 2263"] Good advice above: 1. Call the vet, know the dosage of meds... do not over-medicate the little bugger You can try tubing "Scour-Ease (Optimil Complete)" which has a scour-guard with all milk in it so you don't have to do 2 feedings (1 electrolyte... wait 2-4 hours... then 1 milk replacer)... after 2 or 3 feedings of the Scour-Ease she should be looking better Plenty of fluids... until her eyes are no longer sunk in... or you can also pinch the skin... if it doesn't snap back to being smooth right away... then she's dehydrated and needs more fluid. Best of luck and remember --> they snap out of it as fast as they drop out (sometimes) [/QUOTE]
