Poor guy, can’t imagine how itchy and painful that must have been. Glad he got taken care of!

I’m SO glad we don’t get fly strike where I am. It’s so nasty. Glad you were able to catch it and treat him!

People have NO idea how hard you work and all you do to keep your herd safe and in prime health. There is no way to keep out every case of fly strike and all that anyone can do is just what is shown in this video. Great job ! Peace and blessings 🙏

Man he was ate up with them poor fella glad you saw it and figured it out👍

Poor ram. He must feel such relief now. I can only imagine it is still very irritating even though animals seem to ignore pain much better than we humans. He was definitely suffering previously.

Poor baby, I am a Licensed a Veterinary tech, and finding maggots is one thing that gives me the creeps, you can hear them eating, and they come out of every where. Can’t stand them! I have seen them literally make Swiss cheese in an animal. Very sad.

Awwww- he had it really bad. You take such good care of your animals

This man is the best content creator when it comes to sheep. In other words he's the GOAT😂 I love this channel

Wow! That was terrible. Glad you caught it.

Rambo has to feel so much better! Thank you ❤️🐑❤️

That looked like a really bad case. Glad he is improving.

Gross! That poor critter. Hope he can feel clean and healed again soon!

Early spring have the sheep crutched in a shearing shed. "Crutch" means shearing the rear end of the sheep in early spring. Then, inspect sheep in the yards every three weeks in the field, until the sheep are fully shorn the end of the first month of summer.

Awww poor lad he did get it bad didn’t he! Hope he’s all fixed up and feeling better now xx

Hello from New Hampshire, USA. Excellent vids - Glad to see Rambo is going to be feeling better. Thanks for posting. 👍

I have a couple questions. First of all I know the hard work you guys put in in a days work. There's no 9 to 5 for you all... Why does a sheep when infected with fly strike wander off by themselves and why does the skin get so dark around the infected area I noticed when they are sheered? Can it go to another sheep that the infected sheep is just standing by, do they get it too? Are sheep the only one's that get this? Them drones are amazing when it comes to stuff like checking on your flock. Your so gentle when sheering them compared to what I've seen and I'm a huge animal lover so thank you. Amazing dogs and I loved the hand held out front while approaching the Ram to say stop... Don't even try it lol.... Thank you.

Wow. half his body was like that. Good job catching it. Drones kick but.

Poor little guy, thats got to feel a lot better after treatment tho...

I'm a wee hobby farmer in the United States. This is the end of my third full year having sheep. I've gotten the shearers in for my (less than 10) sheep the last two years. But this year the girls are all losing their wool in chunks. Well, five out of seven ewes are losing the wool to a greater or lesser degree. One girl lost her wool last year too, and this year, I saw that grimy fly-strike coloration that seems a sign on one of the girls. I don't (or didn't) have shears but I crowded her in a corner and, like the others, she's losing her wool, so I pulled what I could away from the area until it was fully exposed. (about 3 or 4 cm in diameter). I've bought shears since I don't really want to pay three hundred dollars for the shearers to come out and shear 2 whole sheep and five half-naked sheep. I plan to halter tie each ewe and practice first on the one girl who had signs of fly strike. I put some permethrin (spelling, not sure if that's the exact name) on her, but not sure if she's fully over it. I'll be spending Mother's day learning how to do a (likely very bad job of) shearing. Thank you for sharing. Poor boy. Glad you spotted his need.

Wow, that's the worst one I've seen.

Kocham ten kanał . Kocham jak strzyszesz zwoje owce i to pokazujesz ❤❤❤❤.

What! Benched?? Rambo won't enjoy the ladies??? ❤Poor Rambo!!

Jeez I bloody gasped!

Is it unusual to have two separate infected areas? I have mostly just seen one here on KZfaq.

I'm assuming if left untreated the maggots grow in numbers and they chew and draw blood, plus infection, and things go deteriorate from there? Seems like it really happens fast. Wishing for a speedy recovery !

You obviously care for and treat these animals well. Does the treatment (some kind of spray it looks like?) just not work well some times?

How did they treat fly strike a long time ago?

Poor baby!

Is there any way for the sheep not to get it ??¿

I’m not even sure what I was looking at there?

정 상태에서 쭉 살아 있다는게 신기하네요..😮완전 대박!!얼마나 답답했을찌...많이 고통스러울듯하네요

Ok, so the closest animal I have had to that is a goat. What is flystrike? And living in Louisiana, would it happen here?

Oh my gosh! 🤢😢

What is flystrike and what country are you in?

This is disgusting, why can't I stop watching it. What's wrong with me 😞

Why does it take so long to find ? Why not shear all of them ?

Rambo was not feeling great when he isolated himself

Overgrazing the land

How long does it take for them to get that bad can’t they be checked regularly to keep from getting so bad

Why are you not using preventive treatments.

Ok I'm not exactly what I just saw, were those "maggots" or what?

poor boy horrible little blighters i hate flies

Rambo looks lame on his left front.

Perhaps it's too morbid for the channel but do you have any footage or stories of this being fatal to your livestock?

I suppose in the World of sheep Rambo gets to say "i was Maggot Blocked" as his excuse for missing out on mating season

Why do the sheep seem so terrified when a human comes near them?

Had to be left for a long time to get that bad. This is why you should handle livestock regularly and not have them out on giant pastures for endless weeks/months unattended.
