Hi All, wormed some lambs 9 days ago. Just in the field now and found a few lambs with worms in their stool like the photos. Used Rycoben. Resistance or dying worms? Thanks

I was told l by a vet that tapeworms basically feed on the digested feed/ muck in the sheeps bodies. So don't affect the health of the animal at all. Problems only happen if there are a massive number of them and they cause a blockage.
