Rumen fluke here, and if it's here in the Highlands, it's everywhere 😱. We suspected a missing link, with losing a few healthy lambs last summer. Just suddenly going downhill for no reason, looking flukey but shouldn't be, and in spite of a very effective health plan. After reading the comments...

Hi guys! New here, and hoping to pick the brains of your collective expertise, if I may? I have inherited a few acres of land, that hasn't had any stock on it for over two decades. Or anything done to it for that matter! My two horses have been put on there, and I acquired 5 Shetland ewes to...

Few lambs left here, 37/38 to 44kg but needing a bit more flesh. Have been getting a pound of meal a day.. not really enough to flesh up with all that rain.they are not loosing weight but not going too far either. Grass is scarce here. Option 1) sell as stores, less work, on paper less money...

So frustrated. Did a fec count, high count, gave them Zolvix drench, still scouring, did fec again, low count. On a big flush of grass. They’re just not doing and look pot bellied. Any ideas please. 🙏🏻

Have only had issues with haemonchus here for the last 2 years, so slowly learning how to deal with it. Got some lambs in today to draw for market and they've lost condition for the 2nd time since weaning due to haemonchus. They had only just put it back on again 2 weeks before 🤬 All wormers...

Morning 8 days ago moved 70odd Feb born lambs onto new grazing. Before moving had a good few mucky so zolvixed the lot & kept in yard for 3 days. They dried up. Checking them this morning & see around 5+ looking mucky again! The ground isn't lush by any means, certainly no better than what...

I thought they had got the decimal point in the wrong place but apparently it really should be £10.51

From Sep I'll have a 3,000hd capacity slatted lamb finishing shed avail to a B&B customer. Includes automated feed system and skilled labour on site. I envisage lambs being sheared into the shed, and weighed weekly while on feed. Location will have its own CPH so movements are no issue...

Why can’t we get this in the uk?

What if anything do the good folk here on tff give the ewes after lambing / on turnout ( indoors lambing) Fluke / wormers , drench etc

I bought some in lamb shearling ewes the other day. They have been indoors on hay and water for 4 days since purchase. I gave them zolvix and hep P one day 1. This afternoon I noticed that one is acting a bit off. She is a bit twitchy and not moving quite right. I have given her a dose of vit B...

Spent quite a while yesterday with our collection, following various issues which arose during a marathon dosing session. Problem 1: Why is the barrel full, and not full, at the same time FFS 🤬??? Set to 8ml, barrel full, delivering 6ml. It's a tired old boy but a favourite and it' turns out...

Morning all. Looking for some advice. March born suff cross lambs getting very dirty. they had Zolvix wormer nearly 3 weeks ago as a fire break dose but have had white wormer twice before that in previous months. Also had a copper bolus (2g) at end of May Any ideas ?
