Sorry about your girl. The good think is that they are 16 days of age, when they are 3 weeks of age they can begin lapping their goats milk from a bowl. At about 3 1/2 half weeks you can begin adding Gerber's rice ceral with a bit of Karo Syrup and make a soupy gruel.

Your vet can prescribe a dry up pill for your girl, however feeding her less will lessen her milk supply. Just monitor that her brests don't fill up, having them burst is not a fun think to contend with. You can put her in with pups, just make sure you put a onsie on her. You may want to lightly day over her nipples with medical paper tape while she's in there with them.

Eclampsia is tough, I keep Oral Cal Plus (for emergencies, when I see my girls acting strange) on hand and give a Calcium Supplement as well as feeding a scrambled egg a day (best natural calcium), along with whelping pudding, The Calcium Supplement I give according to my girls weight and whenever there is a litter of 3 or more.
