Sorry I have only just seen this.  I hope you were able to help your sheep.

I found this thread on the Farming Forum.  Last post says that BIMEDA's vit B1 works.  Still have to get it from the vet, mind.
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

interestingly enough human vitamin b1 is the same just be mindful of different strengths
