Hi,
We are brand new to sheep and just got a ram and a few lambs. The ram is ~2 years old. We've had him for 3 weeks now and he had some gross poops last week. We aren't sure if it was just a change in feed that did it or what but it seems to have worked itself out. However, his wool around his rear is pretty gross. How do I clean it up? I'm worried about him getting fly strike or an infection of some kind. He does let us handle him so we should be able to get in there and do whatever we need to.
Thanks!
