Do you vaccinate for anything?In the middle of a storm here. Had 17 abort out of 630 early lambers so far. Plus a possible other. All within 1-3 weeks of due date. They look normal, don’t smell and some just alive. No cat problem. Closed flock. Had around 8-12 slip last year and didn’t act on it then and it stopped. This year it has definitely multiplied within the flock.
had ewes slip in the house, out on rape, dairy grass keep and our own grass from each mob. Singles getting no sup feed either.
Got 52 bottles of alamycin off the vet today after finding 2 singles, 3 doubles and a treble with dead lambs this am. Jabbed almost all the ewes today just 100 or so to do tomorrow.
Vet has samples and will send off tomorrow so hopefully hear something but couldn’t wait any longer to act on it. Didn’t have any afterbirth for them before this am. Think it’s enzo but we’ll have to wait and see.
Bloody nightmare! Along with all the other suicide fortnight problems I’m already over this lambing!
