im after a bit of advice, I have a small flock of sheep in one area and I go to see them once or twice week and last week all ok, today I noticed a ewe with cloudy eyes thats gone blind and several of the lambs shaking their heads and runny eyes?
The lambs are x Dorset and have been looking brill up until now, any ideas ?

Grass seeds? Pinkeye perhaps?
Would be a year for it, dust and dry grass...

Are they being fed at a rack or trough, that's usually good for pinkeye transmission. Seedy grass could well be the issue though.
