Agree with that and the same should be done for sheep scab.

Possibly but easiest way to deal with sheep scab is assume you have bought it in and dip everything or Cydectin and ectofly if they are in lamb

 

[Hilly]

Sheep scab is bad but their are a lot worse things than sheep scab going about now sadly .

 

[Hilly]

MV would make sheep scab look good , yet very few flock masters give a sh!t about MV but would throw the toys out if a neighbour had scab , strange .

I don’t , as far as I’m aware Scotland is TB free apart from the odd case of bought in beasts.

A year or so back there was an outbreak in Cumbria that took in a lot of farms due to the affected farm having land scattered around everywhere. They bought the infected cow in TB free Scotland.

Yes exactly

 

[Hilly]

So the Scottish authorities are covering up TB ?

 

[Mc115reed]

Just dropped the lot off at the English winter fair at Stafford show ground

single lamb being sold for charity for rabi
Pair of lambs at 80kg
And a pair of lambs at 90kg
Anybody care too predict prices on Sunday?

 

[Shebb90]

Anyone been seen any stores lambs at Exeter today?

 

[Raider112]

So the Scottish authorities are covering up TB ?

No idea and not looking for an argument about it, just saying what happened. There was a lot of comment at the time about Scotland being described as TB free but apparently if cases are low enough that's how it's classed, doesn't have to be zero cases.

 

[Six Dogs]

Any lamb DW prices for next week?

Same can be said for BSE, which is non zero in “BSE free” U.K.

I don’t believe that anyone in authority is covering up any bTB cases in Scotland.

I’ll second that. Anyone there/heard what the trade did?

Find it hard to believe , but like I say I know little about TB …. Fortunately .

MV would make sheep scab look good , yet very few flock masters give a sh!t about MV but would throw the toys out if a neighbour had scab , strange .

And its prevalent in some very English breeds , breeders turning a blind eye
