I have a khaki Campbell female that's limping on on leg. It's been a week now,not worse or better. I looked at her leg and foot. There's no swelling on her leg at all.only thing I can find is on the heal of her foot its a little bigger bump then the other side. It seems hard. It doesn't seem...
Yes I'm a member. To late. I ended up putting her down. I talked to the state vet and he thought it must be a intestinal problem that was going on a little while.thank you though...
It would be hard now to give him a bath ,its winter here and dont want him to get cold. Im going to see how this wheat germ oil works. Thank you though.
Thank you for all your help. I started giving him the wheat germ oil blend. I got it at Tractor Supply. I give it to him directly into his mouth. Dont get much of it from putting it into his food. And of course it is always the hard to handle ones that have trouble :)

My only problem with giving it in his food is I don't feed to much grain because they are wethered and fat all ready. I have been giving a little boss ,I could put it in there. I will see if I can get it. Thank you. I just worry it will turn into something worse then only a skin problem.

He's been like it for a couple yrs now. Just seems worse this year. Definitely not parasites. He's itchy and scratches sometimes till he makes a sore from biting or rubbing to much. He is A little overweight and eats well and plays. So other then the skin problem(which is bad in my opinion) He's...

I have two 21 day old lambs. They got these grayesh looking bumps around their nose and above their top lips. I thought soremouth but their isn't anyway they could of got it from. Plus I don't have on anyone else with a problem,mom's utter are clear. Could it be a fungus?
Debbie
Yeah thanks, I figured it was ok. They are used to eating it now. I try to give a little at a time. One of Nigerians inhaled the broccoli tops, he loved them the most. What the animals don't like the chickens will eat up. I just had to make sure they knew no meat or oils and dressings, just...
My husband works at a school where they have cooking class. He had been bringing clean veggies from salads and some fruit in 5 gallon buckets daily. I have three ewes and 5 goats and 13 chickens. Is it ok to give them that much veggies everyday?
They seem ok with it. They only eat what they...
My sheep are fat also. I have cut back on their grain to almost nothing. They have hay all the time in their racks. One ewe is a Corriedale and the other two are Border Leicesters. One is the size of a table she is so wide and the Corriedale is like a bull. :D.
They love salads and some...
