f**k Up Fortnight

We only got ordinary betamox ( not la) that’s why I used alamycin, saves catching them every day

Thats what im thinking we only have normal betamox

Thats what im thinking we only have normal betamox

How bigs the lamb ? I just give 1ml but as I’ve said elsewhere, our vet said under dosage is as bad as overdosing Next time I find one I’ll give it 2ml
I think alamycin la is a 3 day cover so if the lambs out in the field it saves running around looking for it daily

Had one here today View attachment 1177748

A nice bonus

No sign of our scanned empties bagging up.

 

[Jonp]

Turned all my remaining ewes and lambs out last Monday including one ewe that was slightly bagged up... thinking maybe she'd slipped her lamb without me noticing. Checking sheeps this evening and she had a lamb! Double bonus, live lamb and no dead sheep.
Hope it warms up soon as the sheep are getting ahead of the grass.

I breed my own mules, this ewe lamb should be good to enter the breeding flock in 18 months.

I’ve had a couple in the last week here too.

No, she definitely has tags in, it's such a neat job you just can't see them.
( If you look real squinty there's a pink tag in her ear).
