Title: Movements to shows
Post by: tommytink on July 11, 2022, 10:08:26 pm

Was wondering about movements to and from shows. Just learned that I wouldn’t be able to do two in quick succession as I’d be under standstill unless I have a specific isolation area.

Just checking I’m right in thinking if I took a sheep to a show and brought them back that I’d also be able to bring back any new sheep I might purchase??

You can do as many on movements as you like, but the 6 day standstill clock keeps resetting every time you bring more sheep on.

Thanks Twizzel. So even if I bought one one day and a couple of days later bought another that’d be okay. It’s the coming on, not the going off, that triggers the standstill. Got it 🙂

Yep you got it.
