To drench or not to drench

[Chev54]

Housed ewes in January and lambed them and now ready to turn the ewes and lambs out onto new keys this afternoon/tomorrow. Would it be worthwhile me drenching ewes as I put them in trailer for turn out ? If so what would be best drench .

Need to go onto "wormy" ground for a couple of days after drenching, before moving to new leys. Could be worth changing your drench from the one you used last year, vet will advise.

Not very helpful but I’d have done a quick FEC last week or a fortnight since too identify if they need it, and if yes, what type of worm should you be targeting. Saves treating for what isn’t there if you get my drift?
