I have 4 month sheep kid male, he has been suffering from running nose but eating normally gave him 2cc enrofloxacin for 3 days, but is ineffective.
Respiratory infections are common in sheep, especially young ones. If you can, it would be best to have a vet come out and take a look at him in person to make the best treatment recommendations. Different vets use different medications for respiratory issues in sheep, but personally I normally use either LA 200 or Nuflor as a more effective antibiotic for this issue. LA 200 may be available over the counter in your area, but you will need to have a vet come out and do an exam for Nuflor since it's prescription only.

my sheep got some worms like things on back,,,what should i do?
If the worms are on his back and not in the feces they are likely maggots or possibly even screwworm. This means that flies have been laying their eggs in his wool possibly because of a wound. Treatment involves removal of the maggots, cleansing of the wound, and medication to control infection and reduce discomfort. I would strongly advise a visit from the veterinarian to determine the extent and type of infestation and to obtain appropriate treatment. In the meanwhile, I would make sure that Sheru is separated from any other sheep.

I have a lamb that was starting to get very skinny. I noticed yesterday that there were worms coming out of his butt. Lots! I dewormed him and poured iodine on his rear. Checked him this morning and there are still Lots of worms coming out and they a
They may look alive because it will take a little time for the dewormer to work and kill the worms. When there is a very high worm burden, you will see live and dead worms coming out for many days, or even weeks. I would recommend that Cotton see a vet for evaluation and fecal parasite testing and count. She may need a different dewormer. Occasionally, when there are a lot of worms that die all at once, the body can have an allergic reaction or the worms can even create an intestinal blockage which would cause your lamb to not want to eat, she may need veterinary treatment.

my 1 year old sheep is not responding to food as it used to be,, he's suffering from dehydration and is not interested in things like usual,,help
Unfortunately it is difficult to give specific advices without more clinical informations, I think a check up is immediately needed as these signs are quite concerning but generic. Differentials are many, from gastrointestinal diseases (infection/inflammations often dietary related) to any disease that can spread systemically (causing lethargy for example) like infection, and anything that can cause pain/discomfort. The approach must be logic, starting from offering different kind of food. A check up is needed if inappetence last for more than 24hours. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
