[QUOTE="Howdyjabo, post: 989784, member: 391"] Yeah I thought about all that. So far my sheep worms are not resistant to ivermectin. I bought them from a guy that keeps them in a barn all the time and never wormed, so his worm population died out years ago(one way or the other :)). And I do a 6 pasture (one time only) rotation, preceded and followed by heavy cattle grazing. The only sheep I worm are the ones with pale lids(except in the fall when I hit them all with a white wormer). Each year theres just a few with pale lids.I try and being them back in in 30 days for a follow up worming- I notch ears on adults that I worm to keep track. But I have to bring them in every month and check(its alot of trouble). So this year I am going to try the ivermectin on ewes with pale eyelids at spring turnout and worm all the ewe lambs. The sheep are in a trap for the winter.Then they are going to be on their own for the summer. With the persistant ivermectin I gave them a good shot at fitting in to my system(without me having to bring them back in for a follow up worming). The ones that don't thrive on my system are going to town. [/QUOTE]
