What is "braxy"?
Braxy is a bacterial infection that mainly affects sheep, particularly those the feed on wet fields. It is caused by the bacterium Clostridium septicum. This infection leads to inflammation of the stomach lining and can result in sudden death. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, bloating, and difficulty breathing. Treatment often involves antibiotics, but prevention through vaccination and managing the fields is crucial.
