Based on the symptoms described, the most likely disease the kids might have is Scrapie. Scrapie is a progressive, degenerative disease that affects the central nervous system of sheep and goats. It is characterized by symptoms such as wandering, circling, head pressing, incoordination, and wandering eye movements. Scrapie is an idiopathic disease, meaning its exact cause is unknown. It is not typically a congenital disease, which means it is not present at birth but develops later in life. Therefore, the farmer's kids, being nearly two months old and previously healthy, could have developed scrapie.
