[Blackbelly] lambs with colds
Thanks for the advice on shots. I usually give 1 cc pen and1/2cc of excenel once a day and if they are really bad another dose of penn in the evening. I do this for 3 - 5 days depending on how sick. It normally is a great fix. I just hate the whole idea of shooting such a little thing. I think I will see if they get over the cold on their own. It doesn't seem to be affecting any of the other lambs they are with. And they are eating like pigs even nibbling pellets.

Re: [Blackbelly] Lambs with colds
Hi Nancy, There are some good holistic products out there on the web. If you visit www.wolfcreekranch.com they have products for cough and cold that you could try. They are very detailed in whats in their formulas so you can see if something won't work for sheep. I think their product called Pets cough and cold formula would be safe to administer to a lamb based on the ingredient list. ___ This message is from the Blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
