Title: Worming
Post by: Declan on April 22, 2010, 01:52:53 am

What are your thoughts on this- do you move your sheep onto "clean ground" immediately after worming or do you let a little time pass (to let the working treatment take effect) before you move them onto clean ground?

Thanks in advance

I leave mine a few days before moving on to "clean" pasture. The field is then rested for a couple of weeks and then I chuck the horses on to clean up.

I agree - worm them then a couple of days later move to new pasture
