Ram seems uncomfortable
« on: October 06, 2016, 08:08:42 pm »
Hi I have a ram that seems to be uncomfortable he hasn't got fly strike but he does seem hot and sore each side of his testicles.
It seems red in places.
I any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Could just be increased blood supply to the area in readiness for breeding season. Or an infection or any number of things.
If you think he's not right, then take him to a vet.

Or, never be nervous about asking your nearby farmer/sheepkeeper for advice, most will be happy to help.
