Re: [AlpacaTalk] Dosing for worms and coccidia @ the same time
PS, Yes we've had fecals done on a few animals per pasture (the ploppy
ones) and per our vet's advice this is the course of action we're
taking. Granted, our coccidia situation isn't as bad as you all have
had in Washington, for some reason.
My little girl Kallista had "a full load" of coccidia according to my
vet, and the Albon fixed her right up. Her fecal showed no worm eggs,
probably due to her being wormed the week before. We followed the Albon
treatments with daily doses of Probios, and her poops are nice and
perfect. She passed her vet check-in and went on to win a 4th at HOTV
against all full Peruvians in her class, and she didn't place last in
her class!
