medicine schedules....

I'm trying to get a real schedule figured up on when to give what meds. Are CD& T, cocci prevention, worming, & BoSe the major things to have in place? What am I missing? I'm also trying to put together a medicine cabinet of items for those emergency times.

I have a nice medicine cabinet, or so I believe. Here's a link to my website and a list that tells what equipment I keep on hand : http://www.freewebs.com/mygoats/petgoatinfo.htm
You should probably check to make sure you're in an area that requires a selenum shot. You may be in an area where supplementation of selenium is not required, and therefore BoSe should not be given.
You really should have bloat treatment, probiotics, and vitamin B on hand.
Everything I keep on hand are things I use. I've never had cocci in my herd and don't know what to tell you about that...
