I still just don't know what to think about her, she's not right but I am just praying she will be ok. Here's her pictures, she's only about 3 hours old on these photo's.
My vets coming again Tuesday morning, this time to geld two donkey boys so he can check her again and see what he thinks. It's hard for me to see if improvement is made when I see her constantly.
JoAnne - This is from my first post on this little one -----------
Does any one know why a 4 day old foal would twitch while sleeping. Not just a little bit but a lot. Sometimes it's almost constant for five minutes, sometimes so much twitching she is almost on her back. Then she might get up and nurse a little or just get up and take a few steps and lay back down. Right now she's sleeping almost quietly.
I had my vet here yesterday, he said the babys temp was up one degree, he thought she may be a little septic and gave her some gentimiacin sp?? in the vien and a half cc of penicillan. He told me to do the penicillan today and tomorrow yet. Does this sound right?
I just have never seen a foal twitch so much, I can barely stand to watch her on camera any longer, she's making me crazy with worry. Can anyone offer me any advice?
