Parasite monitoring must be top of your list in growing lambs right now. Unlike most parts of the UK, our region is currently benefiting from rain and abundant grass growth. This sudden increase in rainfall following the dry spell makes the perfect conditions for parasites to thrive.

Look out for poor growth rates and mucky bums. Recent testing in the practice has confirmed some high worm egg counts and in some cases, nematodirus (we expect there has been an unseasonal second hatch this year) in several flocks.

As always please bring in a muck sample, scour may be just from the flush of grass and the last thing we want to do is unnecessary worming. If worming is required please ask us for advice, we have wormers in stock.

Sheep Club had a super night last night on our trip to look behind the scenes of Tebay Services. A business built on such a strong vision to supply top quality local produce. We had an excellent tour of the butchery with Dave Morland who discussed how quality and consistency were key in carcass selection. This must then be combined with a well designed restaurant menu to market and utilise every cut.

Alex Evans then took us around the Farm Shop whilst explaining the history and how the business has evolved. As senior buyer Alex, spoke with passion about the products in the shop, anything from the tomatoes, the brownies the sausage rolls to the clothing and soap range, and everything in between!

We then had a talk from Kate from Ceva Animal Health on controlling breeding seasons and increasing fertility with Regulin. A very relevant topic for buyers looking for a consistent supply of lamb in the early season. Thank you also to Kate for sponsoring our tea!

Thank you to everyone at Tebay Services, especially Dave, Alex and Emma for such a warm welcome, the interesting talks and the delicious food we enjoyed afterwards.
