On a slightly different matter, I wormed my Radnor lambs with a white wormer for tape. One of them still has it, I know which one as I’ve seen her have a pooh and there were still segments. I appreciate the dose might have accidentally gone down the wrong hole, or not have been taken down completely enough to be effective. Should I dose again? I’m thinking yes as it obviously hasn’t worked on her (whereas the rest seem cleared of it)?
The tapeworm where you see segments in the sheep's poo doesn't actually cause much harm in the sheep. We discussed this when you found the segments initially, I think, and said that since you would be worming anyway then may as well get one that covers the tapeworm too.
So my concerns with this would be (a) yes, does it indicate a problem with technique or dose rate? And/or (b) is this ewe really struggling, so is more susceptible to these worms? So whatever you decide to do next I would think it would be worth giving her a mineral drench or jag as a general pick-u-up.
Do they have Himalayan rock salt and / or a mineral lick available in the field?
