Nanno is 100% correct. Herbal dewormers only really work on health animals. And even then it doesnt kill off parasites. It only makes a hostile environment for them to try and live in. In this boys case I would do the following: Because he is so weak, a full does of any wormer will probably kill him if he is loaded with parasites. The die off of them can cause a toxicity in their gut. I would do a half does of Ivermecin. Then in 3-5 days do a normal dose of the cydectin. 7 days later give the baycox. 3 days later give the second dose of cydectin. Then a final dose of cydectin 10 days later. Then if you want you can start your herbal again.
Here is something to note. A goat that is severely deficient in one mineral will become so in most others (cept selenium which uses vit E only) as the body tries to right / balance itself.
