Lamb Dysentery

Definition: Lamb Dysentery

Lamb Dysentery: Lamb dysentery is a bacterial disease which enters the lamb from the pasture. The bacteria infects the land for a very long time. The disease can be avoided by vaccinating the lambs as soon as possible after birth or by vaccinating the ewes before lambing. Understanding and preventing lamb dysentery can save farmers from significant livestock losses.
