Frequent checks and clearing affected wool, then using a antiseptic fly repellent spray makes a huge difference to sheep comfort.

Thank you for helping those beautiful babies ❤️🐑❤️🐑❤️🐑❤️

Hahaha, so true.

Do you treat the ground after to stop them from crawling back on the porch animal

I guess once the affected area is exposed to fresh air and sunshine it will start to heal the skin, poor girl.

Does flystrike in your area just happen randomly? Or is there a specific cause? Injury?

They will target injured sheep but it's more random most of the time. The flies pick a random sheep and attack it.

@@FarmWithMeNZ here in Minnesota USA flies are seasonal. The only flystrike we had was tail docking or castration done in fly season. Are flies seasonal in NZ?

Can you treat them with a medicated shampoo and then shave?

How many do you have?

How many sheep do we have? 2,000 to 3,000 are on the farm most of the year. It's much higher right after lambing. Thanks for your question.

your sheeps sure do get a lot oıf flystrike

I know fly's lay eggs and stuff, but how does or maybe why does this happen? The sheep look healthy.

I'd guess the wool helps create the perfect environment for the eggs to incubate and hatch

The Australian green blowfly lays live maggots on the sheep that crawl down and start biting the sheep causing a wound. Here is a video explaining it kzread.info/dash/bejne/hYlqyNmKksS8pMY.html

Why do they have to be cramped in so tightly...it would seem like they can get hurt.

It's so they can be handled effectively. They are very tough animals, we get hurt easier than they do.

Why don’t you talk to them when you do that? It calms them down.

I do sometimes, but as a prey animal, sheep are not calmed by the presence of humans.
