To early to give Bravoxin 10?

Obi Wan · Jan 31, 2020

Hi All,

A most fantastic friend of mine has offered to come farming tomorrow for some light relief and possibly entertainment, taking full advantage this

I'm planning to worm, bolus and bravoxin 10 all the breeding ewes. They're due to start first week of April and I'm wondering if it's too early to give the Bravoxin - vet said it would be OK but I wondered If anyone on here had any good, bad or indifferent experience of such a scenario.

Hope everyone's well, long may the prices keep rising

Read the datasheet...
Is can be administered between 8 and 2 weeks before parturition (birth).

If you start on 1st April, you're not at 8weeks yet... I get why you want to do them, but far too early IMO. I've only just done my early ewes which start on 1st March - won't do the rest, which start on 10-15th March, for another fortnight

Thanks Nithsdale Farmer - Yes I'd read the datasheet and sort of thought it was maybe too early yet - just looking to save another run through the race. The tail end 2nd cycle ewes could be well into May so the vax would be pointless for covering the lamb/s. Probably do them when there taken off the hill just before lambing.
