We have a 7 wk old lamb that is big and was doing very well until a couple of weeks ago when he got suspected pneumonia. Very rattly chest, runny nose, panting, rang vet and he dispensed a broad spectrum fast acting antibiotic for him and then enough for the others if they got it too, which they didn't. He picked up within a few hours and was fine.
They were weaned 10 days ago and are demolishing creep and hay like its going out of fashion. All drinking fine.
I've been away at a county show for the past 4 days, saw them this afternoon and he was panting again, looked tucked up, looked a bit bloated but not sure if that's because he was tucked up around his flanks, crusty eyes again and generally looked a bit bleugh... he's had another jab this afternoon but does anyone know what it could be? Could it be the pneumonia again? He is eating fine and the rest are very strong and fine too... any ideas?
