This is a sad post but I am sharing because it might be of interest. Our farm was in the eye of a thunderstorm this afternoon. We had a lightning strike to our shed and when I checked our stock after it passed I found our beautiful 12mo steer lying dead under a tree. In the photos you can see the lightning burn marks on his limbs. Ironically his name was Storm (due to his grey colouring when he was born).

Vets pets also get sick on Public Holidays! Many of you would know our ‘farm supervisor’ Mouse. He came across a brown snake on his morning patrol on Friday. He came off second best this time. Special thanks to Bree at Delatite Vets for helping to save his life.

A timely reminder that now the weather is warming up snakes are on the move. This is the second one on our farm in a week.

Cows are such curious creatures when you handle them calmly. Love visiting the girls on this farm.

UPDATE - Owner found
7 black steers found wandering on Goorambat-Dookie College Rd (Goorambat end). Yellow ear tags with 'GH' printed at the top. Steers are safely in a paddock. If anyone knows who owns them please get in contact with me.

Here is an example of livestock who are handled calmly and with respect to their natural instincts. They are very curious when there is no perceived threat.

These are my sheep. They have shelter but are not using it. I hope your animals are making better choices.

I have been seeing increased numbers of livestock losses as a result of the recent stormy weather (hypothermia, pneumonia). Please be extra vigilant with your stock.

I also recommend regular monitoring of worm egg counts as wet, humid weather favours larval survival on pastures.

Important reminder:
I have been seeing an increase in intestinal worm related issues recently (mainly small ruminants) due to the very wet season. Barber's Pole worm seems particularly prevalent. These animals generally do not scour. Often the first sign is lethargic or dead stock in your paddock.

I am encouraging clients to regularly check faecal egg counts and drench accordingly. Particularly susceptible classes of stock include suckers (usually >6 weeks old), weaners, yearlings and pregnant stock. If you have any questions or concerns please give me a call.
