Sounds like it could be urinary calculi, caused by an imbalance of calcium and phosphorous in the diet. A calcium stone is blocking the urethra.
The cider vinegar could help. Ammonium chloride dissolved in water and used in a drench may help if it isn't too late. Left uncured, urine will build to the point that the urethra will rupture causing a condition that some call waterbelly. Toxins will build in the bloodstream and cause death. Larry Meisegeier River Ridge Stock Farm Bruce, WI 715-868-2285 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.sheepmilk.biz > I have an adult ram that appears to have a urinary tract infection. I have noticed the past few weeks he has been kicking his back legs when he urinates (but acting fine and eating). Yesterday I found him down with his head back and his back legs moving around.When I stood him up he was dripping urine and acting very restless.(normally he's is at opposite ends of the pasture from me) I drenched him with nutri drench and apple cider vinegar and gave him a shot of B vits and PenG. He appears still about the same this morning. Any other suggestions. Any other opinions on weather this is a ut infection? > > > Erin =^..^= > =============================================== > This message is from the Barbados Blackbelly Sheep mailing list. > To respond to this message, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To unsubscribe or change your membership options, go to http://lists.coyotenet.net/mailman/listinfo/blackbelly > =============================================== This message is from the Barbados Blackbelly Sheep mailing list.
