[QUOTE="exmoor dave, post: 5133010, member: 623"] Yep, Feb born lambs seem to get scald out breaks as the farm drys up this time of year. Not really a problem when it's wet wet, or dried right out but in between is bad. Fast growing lambs..... congregating round creep feeders is a recipe for scald. Defo less in the mobs on 3 day moves though compared to the week moves. Hate to say it (I'm sure you won't mind some constuctive criticism) but I'm foot bathing the April flock more than ever now all the lamb's are exlana, lambs 3 weeks old plus seem very prone to scald that progesses further if not treated. Jabbing alot of ewes for foot rot as well when housed, they seem fine on grass the rest of the year. But their feet really don't like housing. (Yeah I know you'll say don't house, but even out door lambing I'd have to house prelamb to give pastures a chance. [/QUOTE]
