Don't her anything by moth with that low of temp. Sub q fluids can be gotten at the vet I always have a bag of lactated ringer on hand. I woould warm it and give her about 20 or 30 cc right over the ribs area. I would give the antitoxin

I would hold off on the meds for now and see how she does.

Hope she makes it for you unfortunately sometimes in spite of all efforts they just don't. But you learn a lot for the next time. The first goat we lost we learned to study and have meds on hand as it is often too late to get them when you need them. Fortunately we have a great vet that will give us what we ask for so we have a good supply for emergencies. Work on finding that vet for the future.

I'm rooting for her! You are such a good goat mommy . You've done everything you know to do and you've taken advice so well. Sometimes all of this info coming at us can be confusing, but you've kept right on top of it...good job!
