The barber pole worm is the most common, with many other worms acting as parasites as well. The brown stomach worm, hookworm, thread necked worm, pinworm and a whipworm are also common after the barber pole worm. These are located in the abomasum, small intestine and large intestine. The parasites listed are the most common parasites of sheep and goats.
