[QUOTE="Green farmer, post: 6583574, member: 5969"] I’ve heard Lesley stubbings speak about this before. Apparently old cast ewes are good at hovering up worms and pass very few back out (in comparison to younger sheep) as they’ve built up a lifetime of resistance to worms. Of course, this would only be a small part of a bigger over all strategy. If your importing in ewes from someone else’s farm, you might be importing in a whole load of new problems as well. [/QUOTE]
