  • One of my lambs has come down with a mysterious illness, and its up to me to diagnose it. I learn all about Listeriosis after one of my sheep ingests moldy feed. Find out how I'm treating listeria poisoning in one of my lambs, and how he got sick in the first place.

    Just watching your videos to see if sheep are for us. So sad for you about this illness. I’m so thankful he pulled through. We all make mistakes so give yourself forgiveness. Thank you for all your helpful videos!

    Don’t beat yourself up. We’re bound to make mistakes and you’re being accountable for yours and working overtime to fix it. Hope the little guy pulls through with the good care you’re giving him.

    I didn’t realize that this could happen from eating bad food. Thank you for sharing this information with us it is so good to know. I have goats and worry that I don’t know enough but watching you and other people that farm has helped considerably. I’m sorry you had to go through this. Hang in there

      Thanks! It's so hard to know everything, and most of us just learn as we experience new challenges along the way. I hope making these videos and sharing what I've experienced helps others.

    Well I have to ask, what was the outcome. Thanks for another great video. I believe you have the best sheep videos out. We don't have sheep yet, maybe this spring we'll get 2 feeders.
    Thank you.

    Currently going through this with my goat but no vet available to help. I’m so sad I don’t think my guy is gonna make it. We are on week 2 doing antibiotics, electrolytes, b complex, & probiotics & feeding & water

      It can be very hard to cure. Hang in there, it took my lamb a while to show any signs of recovery.

    What adjustments did you make to the treatment?

    • @YouCanFarm
      @YouCanFarm  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Since I was using LA-200 instead of penicillin, my vet recommended I not exceed 3 days of dosing since that antibiotic can cause liver damage with prolonged use. Penicillin can be given for 5 days.
