Is the little doeling weaned? Is she current with CDT? Could she have gotten into something? I had a little buckling about the same age do the same thing. He was foaming at the mouth and sneezing and lots of foamy mucousy stuff was coming out. I tried to reach in to see if something was in his mouth, of course he bit me. Then I put a tube down him and as I was trying to pass the tube he screamed and fought it alot. I got some more foamy stuff coming out of the tube. I pulled the tube out but then decided I should give him some therabloat. I retubed him and when I did he did not fuss and scream as he did before. I am thinking that he had a stick or piece of straw of something lodged sideways in his throat and when I tubed him I pushed it down. This was two days ago and he is acting just fine. I also dosed him with the Overeating antitoxin just in case he had overeating. Dalice
