Redose with Exodus?

[fishhead]

Do you redose with Exodus? How long after the first dose?

What is Exodus,? Sorry but I have never heard of it.

[Alice In TX/MO]

Dunno what that is.

Ahhh, it dawned on me. It's a brand of horse dewormer. Pyrantal Pamoate.

I don't use that product, so maybe someone else that is familiar with that will chime in. I'm guessing it's one of those that isn't very effective in goats.

I don't know about goats, but it's not very effective on horses in my area.

It's a cheaper version of Strongid that goat raisers use.

Hmmm what kind of worms are you trying to get rid of?

[Alice In TX/MO]

It would work on tapeworms. Not so much on barberpole.

The above link is the 1 I refer to when needing to worm any of the goats here. I hope it helps.

I haven't had a fecal on him in a long time but he's extremely skinny so I'm going to worm him. I just treated him for cocci because he had diarrhea but that I think was triggered from too much Sweet 16. He's always been thin and never fills up like a normal goat but even down to -30 F a few winters ago he never shivered.

He was wormed with Valbazen earlier last fall.

Do you redose for bloodworms? How long after the first dose of wormer?

[trnubian]

If he is really bad yes redose in 10 days. Then do a fecal to make sure it is working. Otherwise you will lose him. He could probably use some probios after all the meds too.

[fishhead]

Do wormers upset the gut bacteria?

[Alice In TX/MO]

Never have heard that before.

[trnubian]

Any chemical is going to upset rumen flora. Coccidiostats do too. I usually give probios or yogurt afterwards. I am using the replamin plus now that have added probiotics so I don't use the probios like I used to.
