Biotracking results

Bradenberry · #1 01/29/11, 06:29 AM

I just received results from Biotracking on my new goats! All CAE negative and all pregnant! Yay!

One question though, on the pregnancy - here's the percentages - Snickers 0.7176, Grapejuice 0.8487, Pecan 0.438, Clara 0.8493. Do you think there's an issue with Pecan? This is the one I suspected was wormy when I got her. Just before 50 day bred, I wormed her with Quest - I thought she looked very anemic & was concerned, gave her a copper bolus & red cell every other day for about 10 days. (Grapejuice got the same.)

Just wondering if it's common to have such a lower percentage or if it's generally a sign that she's lost or loosing the kids. Thanks!

Is she at the same stage of pregnancy as the others?

Yes, she should have been the 2nd to get pregnant - @ Nov 15.

Oh, and the testing for positive pregnancy is over 0.165, so she shows positive, but her levels are so much lower.

I never had pregnancy testing done so this maybe be a stupid answer

maybe the others are pregnant with twins and she has a single?
I would call them on Monday morning and ask about the difference. This way it puts your mind at ease.
