Copasure capsules are an appropriate way to deliver extra copper to your goats system. I have several goats who suffer from copper deficiency. I cant seem to keep it under control, their coats are rough and dull and their tails will bald if I do not keep up with their copper treatments. They respond well to the copper in these capsules.
I divide them up by spilling them out on a plate. Some sites suggest dividing them into 5 capsules, but I do 6. I would rather give more often than give too much at once. I use a bolus gun to give these to the goats, and I am filling 00 capsules. The big red capsule is for a cow! They spill out easily and simple to put back into the smaller capsule.
I store them in a plastic bag with the empty red capsule until I am ready to use them. I do this to make sure no one gets confused as to what the substance in the capsules are, although it truly looks like pencil lead! Nothing else that we have in capsules looks like pencil lead... I was out of 00 capsules, so I dumped so out of date herbal capsules and reused those.
