Controlling Pneumonia
Modification of buildings to aid in the control of pneumonia takes
time and planning, and vaccination programmes may need to start
before housing.
Free Blood Testing
It’s not too late to blood sample ewes to confirm toxoplasmosis
and enzootic abortion as the free testing by Intervet will run until
the end of July. Using these results you can vaccinate pre–tupping
this year.
Controlling Scour
Control of scour in sucklers may include changing calving patterns
and using vaccination in late pregnancy.
Do ask for our advice
Prevention of disease saves time and more importantly money, making
farming a more enjoyable occupation but it does require a bit of
prior thought and effort.
Do ask for our advice – we also find it more rewarding to be
involved in husbandry decisions and disease control rather than
just seeing “the lost causes”.
