[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 856688, member: 16453"] They ingest the 3rd stage larvae which forms a nodule in the abomasum which then moults a couple of times to get to the adult. From larvae to egg laying adult takes 3 weeks. If it is the adult that causes scours then your answer is 3wks, however if the nodules cause irritation and a heavey load of them interfers with digestion then I guess it could be sooner, but I still think it would be a couple of weeks. I am no expert, I just looked this up in my old Parasitology book for what it is worth. Ken [/QUOTE]
