I have a sheep and his whole face is swollen and puffy. Do you think it is a rattle snakebite or a bee sting?

Could be, but also could be bottle jaw from anemia. I have seen some get pretty puffy in the face, to the point they can barely eat or breath.

If it is the whole face, my guess would be bottle-jaw as well! Is it possible to post a pic? When was he last wormed?
