Q.Sheep & Goats
How do I manage internal parasites in sheep?
A.
Use FAMACHA score for individual animal assessment, rotate pastures with rest periods of 60+ days, multispecies grazing (cattle break parasite cycles for sheep), copper boluses where local conditions support, and only deworm individuals showing signs (selective treatment). Resistance to dewormers is widespread.
Livestock-breeds pages cover parasite-resistant breeds.
