[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 667869, member: 4353"] The two most common causes are liverfluke and anaplasmosis and to a lesser degree babesiosis, but I doubt you'll have that in your area. If the cause was anaplasmosis, which I believe to be the likely case, treat aggressively with a short acting oxytetracycline followed by a long acting oxytetracycline the next day. Give Vit B12 complex daily to boost apetite and probios to get the rumen going again. If caught early its very treatable, but it will take time to get back in condition. Its not hereditary and ticks are usually the vector spreading the disease here. The first symptoms are usually loss of apetite, droopy ears, very high fever, small hard dung that looks like its coated in a mucousy membrane. The eyelids, mouth and vulva become pale and the pale will eventually turn to yellow in very advanced cases. [/QUOTE]
