Another Februdairy fact….
Did you know… lots of research has been done on milk and how good it is as a post workout recovery drink!! This is because of the protein, carbohydrates and electrolytes it contains which help muscle recovery and rehydration! 🥛🏋🏼‍♀️⛹🏻‍♀️🚣‍♀️🚵🏼‍♂️🏊‍♂️✅

Wales has been placed in a Prevention Zone for Avian Influenza. This means all bird keepers must take appropriate steps to ensure they minimise the risk of transmission, including:

• Ensuring enclosures are unattractive to wild birds ( by removing access to food and water);
• Ensure birds are fed/ watered in enclosed areas;
• Minimising movement of people in and out of bird enclosures;
• Cleaning and disinfecting footwear, using foot dips before entering poultry enclosures;
• Keeping domestic ducks and geese separate from other poultry;

All bird keepers must also complete the mandatory biosecurity self-assessment checklist within 7 days.

Avian Influenza is a notifiable disease, and any suspicion should be reported immediately to the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) on 0300 303 8268.

On 10 January 2025, 3 water buffalo in Germany tested positive for Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD)out of 14 on the holding.

What is Foot and Mouth Disease?

FMD is a highly contagious viral disease of cattle, sheep, pigs and other cloven hoofed animals. Cattle with FMD may develop sores and blisters, and have a fever, shivering, lameness and may produce less milk. Sheep and pigs rarely develop blisters, and lameness is the main sign of the disease.

It is not yet known how these animals became infected as they had been on the holding for a long time. But the disease poses NO THREAT to human health or food safety.

The Government has banned the commercial importation of animals that can be affected by FMD and their products from Germany. If you have any concerns, please ring us and speak to a vet 🐂🐄🐑🐏🐖

A couple of weeks ago, one of our vets, Abbie, placed a tracheotomy tube after this calf developed laryngitis that was refractory to treatment and had severe breathing difficulties. He had immediate relief once the tube was placed and has done been doing great ever since. #farmvets #lovewhatyoudo #agriculture #backwelshfarming

After these last couple of days, it may feel like Spring is a long way off… when it is actually hiding just around the corner! But are you ready for turnout? Many vaccination protocols require both an initial AND a booster vaccine to ensure your stock are fully covered with gap between them! This means that to have fully vaccinated stock pre-turnout, a lot of regimes must be started NOW! So speak to your vet or ring 01267 233266 to get a bespoke vaccination plan for your farm. #springisintheair #protectyourherd #vaccinations #turnoutisjustaroundthecorner #farming

Places are filling up fast! If you would like to attend one of our Mastering Medicines courses, please give us a ring to register your interest on 01267 233266 and we will do our best to keep up with the demand. Remember the course is now required to be completed EVERY 5 YEARS for Red Tractor Farm Assurance.

And the winner is........ Congratulations Rhys, the hamper is making it's way to you!! Thank you all for entering!

What better way to end the week then to have the chance to win a lambing hamper worth over £125! All you need to do is like our post and share the page. Winner will be announced early next week! Pob lwc!! 🐏🐑

** Don’t try this at home ** Here’s a weird Wednesday fact for Febudairy… did you know… that ancient Russians used to put a frog in a bucket of milk to keep it fresh…but maybe it’s not as weird as it seems…. Scientists in 2012 found that the brown Russian frog have antimicrobial properties on their skin! #milk #thewhitestuff #febudairy #weirdbutwonderful
