You know me so well!!!! Yeah it was basically pushing that we should all be dipping and there are approved dipping contractors out there who save the need for you to have your own licences.
Dipping all the way for us we’ve never stopped most round us don’t dip
Carrs billington had a presentation with rep from Nithdales favourite firm pushing their products, didn't really learn out new but got a decent feed, few weeks after got an invite from Eden Farms to a meeting with the same rep, thought f**k it, might aswel let him buy my dinner again, was decent crack with folk if nowt else
Were you at the Barney meeting?
Fell sheep all dipped at least twice a year, everything else dipped at least once, hoggs always dipped on return from wintering. Think most around us will dip at least once a year
No, Appleby with both firms
A lot using injectables here it’s less hassle and work we find dipping better
I thought we might have been in the same room together
The biggest benefit to dipping is that it actually fücking works.
Sheep freshen up too
Probably will have been somewhere, in an auction or somewhere and just not realisedI thought we might have been in the same room together
Tbf I don’t usually learnt much at the vet meetings. If anything new and exciting in the sheep world has come out our vet rings up and tells me about it. But I’m not one to say no to free refreshments
plus it stops the meetings being colonised by the folk who keep 50 ewes for a hobby if a few rough and ready commercial farmers go along too.
as our vet says “you aren’t afraid to answer questions, ask questions and tell someone if they are talking shite. I can’t do that to a customer!” 
On till gone 11pm but up n ready , 27 ton on its way .
I suspect that you aren’t one that’s using cydectin or Dectomax as a blanket treatment though?? To tight down there for that…
