Arm length gloves help protect the
ewe and you from infections when you’re lambing a ewe.

Antibiotic pessaries are handy to
put into a lamb bed once you’ve pulled out dead smelly lambs.
Occrycetin boluses contain terramycin and although not licenced
for the job they work very well.
Cyclix aerosol is a new antibiotic
spray which is a similar price to Alamycin aerosol but is of a high
quality. They last longer and empty completely. In addition, when
you use it, you’ll find that less of the product runs off and
so less is wasted. So next time you want an antibiotic spray, ask
for Cyclix.
Rehydion
When a calf scours or appears dehydrated its second nature to reach
for the lectaid. This tends not to be the case with lambs. They
too become dehydrated if they scour of get rattle belly but its
often not as easy to give fluids. Rehydion is a new product designed
for calves but is handy for lambs as well. It’s a liquid that
comes in a handy bottle which holds enough for about 100 lamb doses.
Rehydion can easily be added to milk or water and given to sick
lambs.
Other products
Lambing nooses, feeding tubes, castrating rings, powdered milk and
lamb teats are all available from the surgery.
