I've tried four different calf coats so here's my opinion on my preferences, the type I like best for the calves.

Bring a sample of your cow's colostrum to the clinic and we can test it while you wait

Colostrum is the key component to calf health, but how soon after birth should the calf receive this liquid gold? Do you know the golden rule?

A horrible disease. Make sure your dogs are vaccinated.

Even the vaccination is not 100% effective for rogue and evolving strains

Warning to those who have sycamore trees in their paddocks

Sycamore Poisoning Alert - Just to notify everybody that we had our first case of Sycamore Seed poisoning late last week. The 2 year old horse died as a result of the poisoning. This disease has a high death rate and happens in horses out in paddocks which eat the seeds of the sycamore trees - seeds are just starting to fall now. So if you have horses and ponies out in paddocks have a look around for the sycamore trees and take action now before it's too late. If horses and ponies cannot be removed from paddocks where the trees are then make sure they are getting supplementary hay available over this risk period. (The picture below shows the colour of the urine in a horse affected by the condition - the toxin in the seeds causes muscle damage and the muscle protein causes the urine to go dark brown / reddish in colour.) From Warren Schofield.

DARKNESS INTO LIGHT.
"It's OK not to feel OK".
This incredible event has been and is a great source of support and unity for our community which has suffered personal tragedies & challenges over the years as well as raising much needed funds for Pieta House.
The route starting at the Mattie McDonagh Centre, which proceeds through Main Street, down the Pound Road, through Ruane and returning via the Ballyforan road and Pettit's Road, is also a walk of gentle & personal reflection as the sunrise lifts the veil of darkness into a new dawn.
