Advice on control of CIBD is speculative but includes reduction of all parasite challenge. A clean grazing policy would also avoid the related but separate condition of chronic gut damage and hypersensitivity (anthelmintic unresponsive diarrhoea) caused by repeated larval nematode challenge, even in the face of repeated anthelmintic treatments, as described by Suttle (1995). Other factors involved in the aetiology of CIBD could include viruses, for example, ovine herpes virus 2, bovine viral diarrhoea virus, bovine leukaemia virus, specific dietary allergens and a genetic predisposition. Neither Border disease virus nor maedi-visna was present in the study flock as determined by repeated serological testing. Conversely, lymphoma was diagnosed sporadically in the study flock and has been seen concurrently with chronic lymphocytic enteritis in a Canadian flock (Rae 1994); thus, a connection may exist between these conditions. CIBD should be considered as a differential diagnosis in sheep aged three years or younger, showing poor growth or illthrift with ruminal hypomotility, dullness, pasty faeces with negative results for parasitic infestations, trace element deficiencies and paratuberculosis. More conventional intensively managed flocks may be at risk from the condition since similar pathology has been seen in illthriven six-month-old Suffolk lambs after an extended housing period (D. J. Wilson, P. R. Scott, unpublished data).
