Hi everyone, new to the forum, was suggested by a friend I post on here for advice and peoples experiences .
Out of 800 ewes I Have the odd 4 or 5 ewes per year that go down with pneumonia type symptoms... which coupled with the fact I’ve been lambing for a few weeks now, so far lambed 200 Texel x Mule ewes, have had 7 or 8 ewes with solid quarters or completely solid udders, could this be a sign of MV problem, all ewes uddered and fine at tupping time and no clinical signs of mastitis just no solid plates in udder .
Any thoughts ? Plan on getting some ewes tested , but thought I’d ask on here first.
