I have a long yearling ram that has been taken off the ewes and the past month he has started to lose weight, stands around humped up and on occasion has a real loose stools. I have wormed him and tried Tylan 200. He continues to eat and drink. I am starting to get real worried.

| is he urinating ok? humped up back would mean to me some kind of pain or he's cold. Is there a vet in the area you can call just to ask about symptoms? Sorry not much help

| sorry I'm not responding faster, Trying to find some more info for you - how is he today? I would keep hay infront of him and not push too much grain if any at all till he is acting more aggressive - then start grain very slowly - and make sure he keeps drinking

Get some corrid and some sulfa and treat him for coccidiosis ASAP.
