We never had coxxi until last year, we have a shepherdess lamb feeder and thought we would add some lambs from another farm to make it worth rearing them, unfortunatly they brought orf and coxxi onto our farm
My fault for buying in cades, never again
We didnt realise what it was for a few weeks and by then they had been hit real hard, we lost one lamb but the other recovered (gradually) they were kicked alot back though and the last of them left as stores 2 weeks ago (if you ever take animals to a market and then have to stand as far away from the pen as possible as they sold, you know that you were embarrassed by them)
We got rid of it using vecoxxan which you can get from mole valley and we also got a couple of coxxi tubs from denis brimicombe, I dont know which worked but it helped
This year every lamb is going to get vecoxxan'd before the coxxi hits, if we get orf again we will have to look at scratching them from now on, down side of buying in mule ewes in the summer... we also ended up with orf in the summer and pink eye... but thats another story, flock hopefully can be closed next year
