🐑 Colostrum Supplies 🐑

It is vital that all ewes that will be carrying lambs have a good body condition score!

Poor body scoring can result in multiple issues during the lambing period such as;

⭐️Barrenness.
⭐️Risk of pregnancy Toxemia
⭐️Low milk production
⭐️Difficult lambing
⭐️reduced fertility
⭐️Culling

Condition scoring plays such a big part pre-lambing and is often over looked. Making this a part of your pre-lambing routine could have huge impacts on your lambing season all together!

If you’re unsure on how to correctly body condition score ewes please call us today and a vet will gladly talk you through this.

☠️Reduce mortality rates☠️

Lameness is a silent threat to all ewes that are in lamb. It is vital that we make sure your flock has the best physical health they can pre-lambing.

If lameness is a problem on your farm you need to:

⭐️Avoid- Keep lame ewes separate to ewes in full heath to avoid the spread of any diseases that could be present.
⭐️Treat- Lame ewes should be treated with injectable treatments.
⭐️Vaccinate- Seek vet’s advice should you regularly be faced with lameness problems through your flock.
⭐️Quarantine- Ewes that are in poor health keep away in separate groups, sheds or pastures. Continue to keep them separate until full health has been restored.
⭐️Cull- Ewes that go lame and are unable to restore to full health should be culled to avoid the spread of diseases through your flock.

Should you have regular problems with lameness, please feel free to call and have a chat with our vets today. We are always happy to talk through options to help improve your Flock health.

🐑 Maintaining ewe health Pre-Lambing🐑

It’s always good to understand that importance of looking after your flock pre-lambing.

⭐️ What are the average weights through your flock.
⭐️ Can we group them for feeds e.g. Singles and Twins.
⭐️ Are there any lameness issues or health issues through your flock?

These are all questions you need to think about in the build up to lambing. Taking good care of your flock Pre-lambing will ensure that you get the best possible out come from every lamb born on farm.

If you have any questions or worries regarding your Flock in the run up to lambing, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our office today.

⚠️It’s all about trying to be prepared….

There is a lot of noise about sheep vaccines and availability. We will continue to support all our flocks to explore vaccination options.

⚠️Please call Shirley in the Bridgnorth office and let her know what doses you would ideally like and for when. We can then try to divide and conquer!!

🐐 Hoof Trimming🐐.

Earlier this week Megan (vet) and Sophie (vet tech) headed out to do a few hours of hoof trimming. All goats are now bouncing off the walls after having their new pedicures.

Is it important that we keep on top of hoof trimming, whether this is in Goats,sheep or cattle. Hoof trimming is a good way to determine if there are any underlying problems that could lead to lameness or infection, in some cases conditions such as foot rot can spread among the herd.

Ignoring the quality of your livestocks hooves, will lead to unnecessary pain, infection, joint problems and spread of diseases. In cattle and sheep this would have a huge effect on production and profits, as you will spend more time fixing a problem that could have been prevented.

Call us today to get your Goats booked in for a hoof trim! 🐐
