I took Rose to the vet. Her head was a little infected. The vet said that when she was disbudded, the iron must have slipped a little bit and too much tissue was involved in the wound. Actually, her eye narrowly escaped being damaged or put out. We put a heat lamp in the goat's stall as per the vet's instructions to keep them warmer.
She got an antibiotic shot and I was given a steroid/antibiotic ointment for her. I've been treating both babies just in case. They both are much better today - came out of the barn leaping and running as we made our way to the goat pasture. They spent the day outside and everyone is happy.
