🌱 Turnout Time – More Than Just Letting Them Out

Turnout is always a welcome sight, but it’s also one of the biggest change points in the year for cattle. Moving from silage to fresh grass puts pressure on the rumen, and that’s where problems can start if cattle aren’t managed carefully.

Grass at this time of year is high in energy but low in fibre and minerals, which can lead to issues like staggers, bloat, and digestive upsets, often within the first couple of weeks.

There is also an increased risk of certain diseases at turnout, such as clostridial diseases which can cause sudden death. Planning ahead for the protection as part of your herd health plan is important at this time of year.

A few key things to think about:
✅Try not to turn cattle out hungry
✅Introduce grass gradually if possible
✅Keep some fibre in the diet during the transition
✅Make sure magnesium is included in the ration where needed
✅Check water availability, intake increases at grass
✅Walk fields beforehand to check fencing and hazards
✅Vaccinations for clostridial diseases
✅Have they had both doses if necessary?

Keep a close eye in the early days:
Cattle off feed or lagging behind
👉Nervous or twitchy behaviour
👉Bloating or swelling on the left side
👉Sudden deaths

Catching issues early is key, don’t wait if something doesn’t look right.

If you’re planning turnout or want to review your herd health plan for the season ahead, get in touch with the practice, we’re happy to help.

🐑NEMATODIRUS ALERT – Check the SCOPS Forecast Before Turning Lambs Out! 🌱

Nematodirus season is fast approaching, and the latest SCOPS hatching forecast shows that risk levels are increasing across many areas.

⚠️ Nematodirus can cause sudden illness and losses in young lambs — often before obvious warning signs appear. Lambs aged 6–12 weeks grazing contaminated pasture are most at risk.

📊 See the SCOPS forecast image below — this predicts when large numbers of nematodirus eggs hatch based on temperature changes.

✅ What farmers should do now:
• Check the forecast for your local area
• Monitor lambs closely for scouring, dullness, or reduced thrive
• Speak to your vet or call into store for the correct dosing advice
• Treat at the right time — timing is key for effective control

🚜 If you’re unsure about risk levels or treatment options, our team is happy to help — call in for advice and products tailored to your farm. If in doubt we can also do on site faecal egg count test which can check for Nematodirus all you need to do is bring in an dung sample.
