    Too late for rape?

    I’ve just burnt off and dd permanent grass seed 3 days ago. As an after thought, to graze a few ram lambs in the winter, can I broadcast rape at a quarter rate to boost protein? What are people’s view on this please? Otherwise, are there any other suggestions. Thanks all.

    Mineral drench

    My Texels are barely a month old and I notice a few crusty ears. The ewes were bolus’d after Christmas so I thought the lambs would be supplied through the milk but that isn’t the case. Whet do you good folk find is the best multi bit drench? No copper

    Blackthorn in my arm

    Get some antibiotics and soak it in warm water and epsom salts. If you haven't got epsom salt, normal salt will do but put it nice and strong and give it half hour to soak. Miracle cure for things like that.

    Vitamin drench, any good

    If the lambs ears are a bit crusty, you know you have a cobalt issue. Give them 1 multi drench and bolus them and their ears will be like a teddy bear in 3 weeks.

    Orf scratch

    I always vaccinate for orf as soon as practical after 2 weeks of age. This year, for the first time, I've had a pet lamb react to the vaccine and is in a poor state with it around her mouth, up over her nose and around her eyes. It's not infected and she still sucks. Besides the obvious, which...

    John Deere strange noise

    Error code. ECU 0 1.180.00 The coolant was on the minimum so topped it up and the fault came up once a few minutes later. Then gave her a good run hauling stone and nothing happened so I think you have sorted it for me. The tapping sound comes in at about 25mph. I will turn the radio up and...
