We bought a 4 month old buckling in June of this year. When we got him he wasn't real perky but we figured some good feed and care would get him going before to long. He has been on a very slow decline ever since. We have given him treatment for parasites, minerals, extra feed, B shots, iron, selenium. We ordered in Copper bolus they are 4 gram caps copper oxide particles
By this last week he was weak in the legs and poor appetite, his muscles had atrophied, but he was still eating though moving slow. Thursday we gave him his first bolus and Friday he was moving faster, though still slow, and eating a lot better Saturday he got some runs from eating better but still ate well today he is just laying around not eating. His eyelids look like they have more color
Does anyone know how much copper we can give him? Any other ideas?
