    Sorry - newbie question. One of my newborn lambs has yellowish diarrhea. I gave her a dose of Spectam last night. I assume its some sort of ecoli? Comments before I annoy the neighbours?!

    Hard to diagnose from here, could be just a milky mother, If he has ecoli, his temp would be raised, lambs temp should be 103f or 39 centigrade.
    Teaspoon of natural yogurt can help too if it persists

    I find Enroxil works well 0.5cc, even though technically I use it as prevention for watery mouth find it helps in these instances too
