It is a friends sheep ( we use one of her paddocks for our sheep) it is very lethargic/weak,arched back, unsteady on its feet and it is not eating or drinking.

I also wanted the recipe for electrolytes for future reference and thought they might help my friends sheep!

I'd just use Pfizers Scour Formula.

Make-it-yourself rehydration mixture is 1 teasp of salt, 1 tbsp glucose powder to 1 litre of water.

It sounds though as if there is something more wrong with the sheep..........
