[QUOTE="puppet, post: 7980040, member: 25962"] Giving an antibiotic to every lamb is just going to end in disaster with multiple resistance to Alamycin on your farm with no alternatives. Short term pain and all that. There are no bacteria in the gut at birth, just ingested with first sucking. The gut stops working because of the toxins released by the e coli which then causes sepsis. Once that happens getting the gut moving will be no help Fluid and antibiotics may head it off if recognised early enough but my experience is not great. Straw, cleaning teats, cutting dirty wool off and ensuring early colostrum the key. And lambing outside as much as possible :) [/QUOTE]
