Singles get nothing, I’m probably too mean on them but it works.
They are on stubble turnips till two/three weeks pre lambing with free access to mineral buckets. Then onto bare grass.
Multiples are treated the same but onto good grass also get a lifeline bucket. 2 per 80 ewes.
So far this year buckets are still about 75% full.
Blood tests show I’m short on cobalt. So ewes also get Mayo bolus with cobalt at tupping.
