Title: sneezing ewe
Post by: trish.farm on May 12, 2014, 11:58:16 am

my "barren" ewe who lambed a week ago is sneezing.  She was sneezing a bit before she lambed but is still doing so.  I wormed her yesterday with combined wormer and fluke.  Any ideas what causes sneezing?  ???

Any coughing? Nasal discharge? Eye discharge? How's she breathing (compared to normal ewe). Well in herself otherwise?
