Went to our sheep group meeting today for a talk from Chris Williams of Clinwil nutrition services on trace elements, and to have the results of our grass samples.
A very interesting if quite complicated topic.
I always knew we were low in copper, but bloods when tested were surprisingly high in copper which puzzled me. It was explained today that me taking the lambs down to the vets in the trailer would have stressed them and raised the copper levels! ! Nothing is simple! !
