I havnt dosed lambs yet. I did jag ewes with cydectin la when leaving the shed and I am lead to believe it should keep the pasture cleaner of worms? Or is this incoŕrect?
So lambing started 25th March. I have moved farm and trying to hold of with dosing as often. Now I am seeing a few lambs with dirty bums especially in one lot of 120 ewes. I am wondering to fec how many lambs should I pull dung out? 6 lots of about 200 lambs in each. By testing say 10% does this give a 100% result?
Or would I be silly as now there up to 11 weeks old just to go in and dose with a white wormer without fec test?
On another note I would always clik the lambs too at this time but there is not many trees about and it's far windier at the new farm so hopefully there should be less flies about this summer. I am not planning to clik the lambs I just hope it doesn't bite me on the arse later in the year. Sound Ok?
