I hijacked another post recently to say that my lambs, who had all been wormed 6 weeks ago, were scouring badly. I wondered if it was due to too much grass as it seemed to coincide with stopping their hard feed.
Anyway, yesterday I put out a load of hay, which, much to my surprise, they and the ewes were very happy with. This morning, all dry bums :thumbsup:

Our cows were scouring this week so are being fed barley straw to bulk them out a little... must be something in the grass!

I can only think that all the rain we had during August has made the grass lush again. not something I would have expected at this time of the year.
