[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1684469, member: 12607"] Goats and sheep are not small cows. Worms - particularly Haemonchus contortus, the barberpole worm - can and will kill small ruminants, and they do it very handily. Every day. Other than liver flukes (which I've seen exactly one case of, as I've never lived/practiced in an area where they are present), worms (nematode parasites) do not kill cattle; yes, they may impact growth/productivity, but wholesale death is not a feature of nematode parasitism in cattle. .
