Vet Abi met this pair yesterday when she went to do a visit at funded by the Animal Health and Welfare Pathway. She took some faecal samples to test for wormer resistance and chatted through some topics affecting the flock. Willow Vale will also get a written report tailored to the flock and are now eligible for further funding

If you have 21 or more sheep, or 11 or more beef/dairy cattle then you could be eligible for a funded visit and testing (and you are able to keep any leftover money to spend on whatever you like!)
Give us a ring if you would like some more information about how to get involved- it only takes a few minutes to sign up!

Our new grad Abi headed to Stoneleigh Abbey yesterday for the women in dairy conference!

Abi spoke alongside Becca Cavill about dairy vetting in the past, present and future and how they both decided to become farm vets as women from non-farming backgrounds, and their journeys throughout vet school, alongside the future challenges farm vets might face.

They also spoke a bit about the challenges of being a woman in the dairy industry and important role models influencing their careers.

Great Job Abi!🐄🎉❤️

#ballsoffmonday This morning, Abi C went out to castrate Jeff the goat. As you can see, he didn’t look too impressed but once he’s recovered he can go back to his ladies again!

2024 what a year you’ve been! A massive thank you to our amazing farmers for your support this year! Let’s make 2025 a good one! HAPPY NEW YEAR❤️❤️🎉🎉

On call vet Petra had a busy weekend, one of the calls was a calf with a broken leg. After examination she splinted the leg with the cast. He was back running around being a happy calf in no time! #calfhealth #delawarefarmvets #youngstock #farming

A healthy cow is a happy cow! Here is a housing checklist to ensure the health of your herd during their dry period: 🪰Fly control 🏠Dry barn 🌾Bedding 💨Ventilation 🐄Space

What can you do to prevent calf pneumonia in your herd? Here are our top 10 tips! Give us a call if you are concerned about your calves.🐮 #delawarefarmvets #farming #farmlife #Farm #calf #calfhealth #youngstock #calves

The hard truth about Johne's disease is that there is no treatment available to infected cattle. Any cattle showing signs of the disease should be tested, any testing positive should be culled. Offspring of any cattle found to be infected should also be traced and tested as there is a high chance of them also being infected. Once your herd is confirmed to be Johne's free, make sure to maintain high biosecurity precautions to limit the chance of it being reintroduced to the herd. If you would like any more information on Johne's disease or how to increase your biosecurity levels, give the team a call and we will be happy to discuss this with you.
