We metabolic profiled our cows an sheep before calving and lambing this year.
The sheep short term protein levels were OK but the long term protein ( has a name but can't remember what it is) were quite short.whether this effects milk I'm not sure.put the ewes on higher protein rolls just before lambing but after getting the results maybe should of done it sooner.
We lamb inside an mine are all clipped in January.I though we had them in pretty good condition too but you learn something new all the time.

Dennis Brinicombe gen purpose. In buckets in a tyre topped up regularly it seems pretty weather proof. But I’m trying to find a dryer way. so far trying to cut hole in 25lt drums and either going to put concrete in bottom to stop blowing away or pegging down somehow.
