Mrs Down's Diary April 19

We live in a microclimate. The news is full of hosepipe bans becvause there has not been enough rain.Our lambs are getting watery mouth because we are habing tp keep them inside for too long because of the rain.

Being wet does not necessarily cause the disease.

The lambs can appear healthy when first born, but then they begin to show signs of abdominal pain and a watery fluid drips from their mouth.
