Feces may, for example, contain a high number of nonpathogenic coccidia eggs, or a low number of more pathogenic coccidia eggs. Coccidia are protozoal parasites ( Eimeria species) living in the small and large intestinal walls of animalswith the potential to cause disease under certain conditions. The mean coccidia oocyst counts were 3200 g -1 faeces (range 100-46000) in goats and 2900 g-1 faeces (range 100-11400) in sheep. Malnutrition, including vitamin and mineral deficiencies, predisposes lambs to coccidiosis in addition to being a primary cause of poor condition.

Toxoplasmosis is a common cause of abortions in ewes and does in the U.S. Life cycle A single dose of Baycox® (1 ml/2.5 kg) is reported to be very effective at reducing oocyte shedding in lambs, as the drug is effective at all intracellular developmental stages (unlike coccidiostats) [1].
