WE STILL MIGHT LOSE HIM.....PRAYERS NEEDED ON THE FARM ❤
What happens here
The farmer contacts Daniel from Arm's Family Homestead for expert advice. Daniel confirms that baby goats, especially when small (this one is 2-3 weeks old), can quickly become hypothermic due to their low body weight. He recommends keeping the goat warm with electric blankets or heated towels. For rehydration, Daniel suggests a goat electrolyte powder called Manna Pro, mixed with water. He also mentions that if one knows how to tube-feed a goat, that would be the best method, but using a syringe is also an option, giving small amounts at a time. The farmer explains he made sugar water from powdered sugar and warm water as an immediate measure.
Goal: Obtain professional advice on rehydration and care for hypothermic baby goats
