[Jacob-list] Bottle Jaw

[Linda]

Jennifer reinforces what I've learned (and think I know :-))) Ostertagia (brown stomach worms) in this area more likely shows up as diarrhea.  Barber Pole shows up as anemia and and not as diarrhea.  

BTW -  there will be a FAMACHA workshop at University of Georgia in Athens, GA on September 29.  http://agr.georgia.gov/00/article/0,2086,38902732_0_89907028,00.html

I took this workshop last year and recommend it.  It's a comprehensive course and is abit more than just matching eye lid color.
