Black smelly poop after having is rectal prolapse fixed
« on: July 24, 2016, 06:27:47 pm »
Hello. I have a February lamb that had a rectal prolapse. We tubed him 2 weeks ago and the tube fell out a few days afterwards. For a week he had scours and now he poops fine however it stinks bad, black in color and he will cough ocassionlly and blood will squirt of his rectum. I know this is not normal but could it be from him still healing from being tubed. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. He still eats good most of the time. It has been high 90 degrees here so all the lambs have come off some of their feed. Thanks

Sounds like he has Coccidiosis.
