The selenium is very well packaged and has specific directions on how to use and can be stored for another 2 years.

Very hard to push any out of tube but quick and easy shipping. Paid extra to get it quicker because I needed it asap for a chicken with wry neck since all local stores were sold out.

I love this product... with that being said it's no substitute to BoSe RX. I breed Nigerian Dwarfs this year I had an exceptionally small buckling born he weighted just 1lb he couldn't stand on any legs nor hold his head up. He had two brothers born right after him. He looked like a tiny soggy puddle of dead goat baby but I cleaned him off, suctioned his throat out, propped him on on both sides, put him under a heat lamp and was persistent putting him on his mom every few hours to nurse.

This little goat was to small for me to feel comfortable injecting him with BoSe which I would normally do with all new babies so I went and pulled this "in case of need" tube of Durvet Sheep and Goat selenium out of my closet. I started giving this little guy baby pea sized balls 3 times a day... Very small doseage. I wiped a little bit in his mouth with my finger.

About three days after birth and using this gel this little guy started to try using his legs which is when I got hopeful he would survive and I have to thank this medicine as its the only thing I gave him to help strengthen his legs. By day 4 and 5 i dropped him down to one pea sized amount a day and day 5 he was up walking getting milk from his mom on his own.

This little goat lived and is going to live with his new owners in just a few days! Including pictures of him below. He was born 1lb his brothers her 3lb 2oz and 3lb 4 oz... He's now at 8 weeks 8lbs 2oz and so tiny his brothers are both just over 15lbs each.

(...) We call him Seal you can see more photos of him at the link included.

I had a goat kid that was rejected by mom. He was small, weak, could barely take a bottle and could barely stand.
Ordering this was the best option. I gave him a bit and the next day he was a new kid - bouncy, ravenously hungry, and mischievous...all of the things a kid should be.

I got this as a suggestion to help a sick chicken. I think she was too far gone. Can't fault the product. As described. Same price, maybe a little cheaper, as feed store which is randomly out of stock at times and delivered to my door. I will get some more to have on hand.
