:fl Hope the meds kick in and she improves for you!

Me, too. Remember back to days of kids on antibiotics (long time ago) and I remember doctors telling me three days before they feel better. So hopefully after tomorrow we'll see more improvement.

Checked on her just a bit ago. Her breathing is much easier. Hopefully she can rest tonight.

Oh poor her (and you).
It sounds as though she has pasteurellosis. As all mine are vaccinated and annually boosted I haven't seen it in years, but it's a horrid illness.
:hugs
Here's me sending good vibes 'across the pond at Xmas'.

I vaccinate my goats for Pasteurella Pneumonia too...one of the smartest things I have done for me herd.

I hope your ewe gets better.

Thanks. We did her nasal treatment earlier this morning and she was breathing much easier. And while I was putting the antibiotic cream up her nose she was fighting me (tossing her head and snorting at me). Yesterday she was completely compliant...totally not her. So I think she's feeling a bit better.

That's good to hear. It so funny how we like their feistiness when they are sick and get annoyed by it the rest of the time. :)

Thanks. Unfortunately she passed away earlier this afternoon.
