Blind sheep

[Helga1]

Not wanting to hijack a thread, but we've had a few sheep going blind the last few weeks, some have misty lens so I've treated them for new Forrest eye. One today her eyes look clear but she can't see at all?

Is that a symptom of acorn poisoning? We have had other problems but according to blood test not trace elements although I'm not convinced yet!

We are also thinking this … ours seem to have perked up but still showing signs of the blindness. Our vet initially thought it could be CCN but maybe unlikely now as they are still going strong. Just the eye sight issue now. We do have a lot of trees about

Be interesting to see what comes of it, found 2 dead ewe lambs this afternoon, had a chat with the vet and taken one to Starcross. Dad dropped it off and the vet said he knew what was wrong as soon he saw it but wouldn't say until the pm was done.
Loads of acorns this year......

Hi please can anyone help we have a flock of 11 balwen sheep. They have spent the summer at a friends of ours farm while we have made hay on our land. They returned back last Sunday, slightly trimmer than they were. We wormed them and seem to have been fine. We did notice yesterday one of them seem very subdued lay next to the fence, then today it’s gone to almost being drunk like off it’s feet. Then another sheep’s eyes seem to have glazed over to the point where they are reflective. Both of them appear to be blind as we can go right up to them which is something we have never been able to do. Can anyone offer any advice as to what if may be? Thanks y

Bit of blue spray every few days they’ll come right in a week or so
