I'm using injectable ivermectin for cattle, but I'm not injecting it. I'm using it orally, which I understand is more effective than injecting it. It's easier to use than horse pastes and I don't have to give so much. Goats require a much larger dose per lb. than horses or cattle.
Cuzco is continuing to lose the rest of his hair behind the shoulders but at a slower rate than before. His skin looks horrible and flaky. I'm not sure the zinc oxide ointment is doing anything. The skin might be a little less flaky in those areas but it's hard to tell. If we get a nice warm day soon I'll bathe and clip him to get the rest of the dead hair and scurf off. The hair that's growing in is coming along very well but it doesn't look particularly healthy. It's courser than normal.
