Grains? Re: [Jacob-list] thin ewe

[Joy Thomas, SonRise Farm]

Had another thought -- are you feeding sheep feed? I
wondered, since sheep cannot tolerate the copper found
in horse feeds.

Also, if you have a horse on your property and have a
mineral salt block with copper, and your sheep is
licking it, she may be suffering from copper toxicity.

I, too, give my sheep organic plain yogurt to help
boost their digestion when they are "off".
