ovivac

So drove 40mins to MVF yesterday , "do you have any ovivac / heptavac ?" yes loads in the fridge, but we cant let you have it because there isnt a qualified person to book it out ! WTF ! to say i was annoyed is an understatement with lambs needing a follow up dose shortly , The last time i went...

Anyone done one yet with Feb/mar born lambs? Just started to notice the odd mucky bum, need to do a FEC count tomorrow to check levels of nemo as wells guess.

Has anyone made the switch from hep p to bravoxin/covexin and if so have you noticed any downsides?

I have never double dosed my sheep with Hep P. I just give them a single dose every year 4-6 weeks before lambing. Is this a total waste of time or does it give them some protection? I've never had a problem health wise so far touch wood !!

Hi, I used Covexin 8 to vaccinate all my breeding stock, but this is now impossible to come by. Will giving them a booster of Covexin 10 still cover the stock for the original diseases? Lambs have been started on Heptavac instead, but don't want to start a brand new (significantly more...

Anyone else seen this saga? A stupid sheep got herself stuck somewhere by a river, but not in anywhere where she was likely to drown - any more than any normal stupid sheep at least. Some kayakers video it and it ends up at Cammys door. He finds out all about it and that it's basically fine bar...

I need to 2nd dose a group of shearlings by next weekend, but every time I’ve tried to do it, it’s hammered it down 🤬 Today was meant to be dry but it’s currently torrential rain. Do I do them when they’re wet? Can’t keep them in unfortunately. Not sure if it’s best to do it in the time frame...

As per thread title, anyone know if ok to give both vaccines on same day. Like a heptavacP but covering more strains of pneumonia.

We got on early and ordered our clostridial vaccines so we had enough to dose our lambs as usual at the start of may and again at the start of june, although we had to use ovivac P rather than heptavac P. However, we've had so many problems I'm starting to suspect the vaccines haven't worked and...

Which is best for lambs, cobalt one shot injection, bolus or weekly drench?

So, if you had folpet in the shed, a nice evening tonight and at least a week of rain coming up in the forecast, would you paint it on leaf 2? Idea is to give a bit more flexibility for the T2 timing, or maybe even let me drop down from a Revystar to an Ascra type mix later on, if it comes dry...

Just wondering what everyones average mortality rate is at lambing, outside in April. Little bit of an idea, we lamb outside this is our second year, 1000 head split almost 50/50 2ths and hoggets :oops: The farm hasn't had its own livestock for at least 50years so this is a start from scratch...

Morning all, Could anyone tell me if Ovivac P plus is a good alternative to Heptavac P please? My lambs are nearly a year old and due the annual jab but I can't get heptavac. All advice and worldy knowledge appreciated! Thanks.

4 weeks to lambing and still no Heptovac P available. Can I switch to Covexin 10 now? Thank you for your advice.

If this has been done to death recently admin feel free to remove. I tried to order H.P+ from my vets and they have none in and no idea when they will. Harbro had 1 25 dose bottle and a single 250 dose. No idea when they will restock. Their last restock was 2x250 dose bottles and 2 x 25 dose...

We’ve ended up getting a lot of trouble with orf on ewes tits. The ewes and jan born lambs are inside and usually stay inside until weaning in late March. Usually we vaccinate lambs against orf at 5 weeks old, but unsure now of the best plan to stop it getting any worse. Any ideas?

Does out of date bravoxin 10 still work. It’s 5 months out of date but it’s unopened and has been kept at 4 degrees

I have 70 Charolais x Beltex lambs out of texel cross mules ( another 90 to come in) inside on good hay and Alpha barley treated and in a month they have fattened up tremendously. What I cannot get my head around is we weigh them weekly and even though they have altered there is a huge...

Can sheep have lambivac and bravoxin at the same time?
