Maintaining a Bulk Milk Somatic Cell Count (BMSCC) under 150,000 cells/ml is a sign of a healthy, productive herd. To keep BMSCC down, there needs to be low levels of mastitis. Checking (or ‘scoring’) a cow’s teats is a great place to start. Read more here:

Use teat scoring to help keep mastitis down and improve production.

With calving not long over and mating still very much in full swing, it may feel like it’s too early to start thinking about scanning. Wrong! Planning your scanning now will make it easier to secure the dates that suit you best, so that you can get the most out of it.

In cows, we ideally want to be scanning between 40 and 100 days after mating in order to provide the most accurate dating. Read more here:

This week is World Antimicrobial Awareness Week 💉

Antimicrobial resistance is a huge risk to continued use of antibiotics globally. Here at Vet Clinic Morrinsville, we treat with antibiotics responsibly to protect animal and human health.

Preventing bacterial and viral infections is the best way to reduce unnecessary antibiotic treatment and stop resistance developing. While high quality animal care and good farm systems will help, vaccination is your best tool for this.

Talk to your vet about vaccinating your livestock against common diseases and join us in tackling this challenge.
