The Perendale originated in New Zealand from crossing the Border Cheviot with the Romney breed. They are an open-faced, medium-framed breed that produces bright, lofty, long-stapled, medium-wool fleeces. Developed as an easy-care sheep, they are both hardy and highly adapted to marginal forage-producing areas.
It depends how badly the eardrum is ruptured. Mine ruptured a couple of years ago from a bad ear infection, and it took me at least 3 weeks to get the ringing out of my ear. Depends a bit of how good you protect the ear from pressure changes; usually between 2 - 4 weeks. If you really do have an ear problem, do NOT mess 'round.
Severe ear infections may cause the eardrum to rupture. The pus then drains from the middle ear into the ear canal. The hole in the eardrum from the rupture usually heals with medical treatment. The treatment for acute otitis media is antibiotics usually for 7-10 days.
