Title: Movement Paperwork
Post by: spidge on July 08, 2018, 09:40:07 pm

I’m sending our first lambs off the the abattoir tomorrow. Can anyone confirm the exactly paperwork I need to take with me. Is it just the moment record?

Thanks.

We're sending our first to the abattoir on Tuesday, so snap. They told us that it's the regular movement license paperwork, which is a relief because pigs are more complicated.

For sheep I use a standard movement form with the abbatoir's details for the destination.
In section 1, tick the box for satisfying FCI chain.
In section 3, tick the box for dedicated slaughter market.

Drop the sheep off, always wash out afterwards, then hand cutting list in.
