Liquid Chlorophyll supplement is a blood building supplement given to boost recovery from parasite-induced anemia. Goats often become anemic from worm infections and sucking lice. It often improves gut issues thus can be given to goats which are being treated for coccidiosis, can help stabilize rumen function, and improve digestion.
Check with your veterinarian for dosage for goats.
- Give in a syringe. Do not exceed Dosage of 7ml per 100 lbs.
- For newborn kids, I give 3 drops the first day. For Doe day of giving birth I give 5-6 ml.
- In general, when goat looks underweight or just isn't acting like it is 100% well, I give 1 mL per 10 lbs as a loading dose and follow with 1 ml per 20 lbs for 2-3 days.
- If you are clipping hoofs or disbudding or moving a goat, it is stressful and can often cause parasites to have a big bloom. Because of this, I give goats Liquid Chlorophyll at those times. Watch for parasites closely at these times. They may also need a dewormer.
- For a very anemic adult goat (check the color of the inside of their eyelids) I would start with 6cc's red cell orally for 3-4 days. Then I would decrease it to 3 cc's daily & monitor the color of their eyelids. Depending on the severity of anemia will depend on the length of dosing. Goats tend to respond to this quickly so check their Famacha every day before dosing.
- Also giving one injection of 4 cc per 100 lbs bodyweight of Vitamin B12 is important in these critical situations. This is an injection and is given once total.
- While it is possible to overdose a goat with iron (and copper) products, this is highly unlikely to happen even with daily dosing for a few days.
Note: If you are unsure or have never used these products, always ask your goat Vet first. The above suggested dosages have worked well for experienced goat keepers, however, it's best to check with your goat Vet first if you are new to treating your own goats.
