Anyone have an idea? Skin problem
Sorry this is a bit long...........
I have a small flock of Tunis Sheep. 1 ram and 2 ewes. The ewes gave birth on Jan. 21........and Feb. 27. Throughout their pregnancy, I noticed they were itchy. By the time the lambs were born, they had pretty much tore up their coats. I had a lady come this past Sunday and shear them. When the lady was finished, she said she didn't see any lice. (I called my vet who can not come until March 31. They told me you could not see lice real good with the naked eye.) The ram and 1st ewe do not have any spots like this girl. She doesn't appear to still be itchy. Here are the pictures. Maybe someone has an idea? If you do.....what do I treat her with? She has spots where there is absolutely no wool left. Just skin. Up near her neck is soft and looks normal.
The last picture is the ram. His skin is soft and normal with no bare spots of skin showing. The other ewe's skin is like the rams. Normal.
