I posted a few days ago about my foal scouring. The next day she was still scouring and looked a bit depressed so I brought her and mum in. The vet came out, she had a slight temperature (39.5) and he left me with some Diarsanyl and an electrolyte replacement powder. He said he'd be reluctant to give anti-bs at this point and to keep a close eye on her.
I've been taking her temp several times a day and it has come down to around the 38.5 mark. She's feeding and isn't showing any signs of dehydration but the runs are still really bad - like yellow liquid. I've taken mum off all hard feed and she's just on plenty of hay. The foal's still down in the dumps- she hasn't got any worse but not any better except the temp's come down.
Any ideas anyone?
