Is it possible to worm them through the turnover crate? Got a clamp but when I use it a lot my hip starts aching.

Yeah, you can worm, tag and jab, the head end lifts up to tag and jab, ill get some pics later today

Ours have been very variable - especially as we've had some scorching days and virtually no rain.
Loads of rise in most but then you get a run of gummy bellied bu66ers

Just shy of 600 done here. Finished the first farm on the 1st.

Shifting sheep yesterday, it's raining today and I'm setting up trailer this afternoon. Might fetch a small group in tomorrow to make what's in bye into a manageable size for Monday... bellies are almost all off so they should be good to go

Hoggs were good to do once ya got through the bellies, the fews ewes that found the way over the walls not to bad but could do wi some rain on un .
markin and wormin then back to the moor

40 hoggs and 5 tups arrived for hair cut, really good to do

Took nearly as long to 5 tups as it did the hoggs, stiff, feckers wouldnt bend fought all the way, glad i did the hoggs first, bloody sore now.

They left there mark

Then the suffork contingent turned up, luckily only a third of what she normally has
