Scary stuff! Praying Petunia is up and back with the kids soon! Did you milk out colostrum for them?
My doe, Fuzzy, was fine when she kidded but then went down within 12 hours. I tried to get her up but she was too shaky to stand and couldn't support her weight. The vet gave her calcium via the jugular vein and she immediately stood up and acted like nothing ever happened! It was like a miracle happened.
Fuzzy was a high volume milk producer. Is Petunia? The vet had me feed her a specific way prior to her other kiddings to keep it from happening again.
