I raise Suffolks also, great video to explain the breed. Why are some missing wool? I had a lamb early this year have a cold with a fever and she had "wool break" as a result. Praise the Lord, she did not get pneumonia. Is there another cause for wool loss? Any help will be appreciated.
@EwetopiaFarms2 жыл бұрын
Hi Holly. I am not a veterinarian but from our experience, patchy wool can be caused by several things. Stress of some sort is one - like extreme weather condition changes, weaning, lambing, moving, sickness, etc. Sometimes it's a sign of lice.
@hollyhill40342 жыл бұрын
@@EwetopiaFarms thank you, I was just wondering what caused your sheep to lose their wool in case it happens here. I don't usually have this problem. I had a wether that had a strip of wool missing from the top of the hip down but we could never figure it out. No lice, possibly stress from weather as he is about 12 years old. He recovered on his own with the Lord's help.
