Title: hep p plus clarifications please, jagged my sheep for first time feeling happy!
Post by: bloomer on April 07, 2015, 11:20:38 am
hi ewes and last years ewe lambs all had their boosters today as did the tup...


(well except for our flighty i don't want to go in a pen ever ewe who got her 3rd strike today and will go in the autumn)


2 questions, this years lambs due in a few weeks, do they get 1 or 2 jabs this year?


filling in medicine log, can't find a withdrawal period on the box, google tells me 0 days but thought i'd check with you guys...


am very pleased with myself as this is the first time i have jagged sheep properly and i was a bit worried about it but it all went well, although wow some of the fleeces took some fighting through!!!

Well done.

Yes this years new lambs have two jabs.  First about I think at ?8 weeks and second four weeks later and then an annual booster.

0 days withdrawal.
