[member=27335]vfr400boy[/member]- could you please please sort your avatar photo's orientation - it's doing my head in !

[vfr400boy]

How do I do that ? Ha

[member=27335]vfr400boy[/member]  So, assuming you have pic saved on your PC/Laptop, almost all photo apps will provide you with a rotate option. For ease, the "Photos" app that comes with Win10 has a rotate button in the upper menu bar (after one has opened the photo) - click the rotate button a few times until you achieve correct orientation.  Save and update your TAS profile !  Ta.

(Sorry to nag about your avatar pic, but I am in-zone for Asperger's syndrome and some things just irritate beyond reason to most folk.)

Think I have done it ??

Think I have done it ??

You have, BUT there is something odd about your uploaded pics (avatar or posted).  Most have black bars either side of pics.  I'm really not sure why that would be.  First thought though is that you are photographing in wide-screen mode and the forum can't adapt to that.

Had my small flock scanned yesterday 3 carrying twins and one empty

[Penninehillbilly]

Shame about the empty, but twins are good  .
Just been looking at the first shearing picture, mine was like that, improved over the next, but i could recognise her all summer  .

[vfr400boy]

Thing is I can't remember how I did it so this summer it will probably look the same or worse ha , I will try the ewe again next autumn if she is empty again next year she will be shepherds pie i think

Last years pet lambs are looking a bit thin i know the time of year won't help but is they any thing i can do they get hay and pellets they are in a 6 acer feild with a horse,  I will take a sample to the vets for a count next week to make sure its not worms ( roughly how much will a egg count cost )
 

[SallyintNorth]

Most likely worms or fluke, sounds like they are getting plenty of input.  My hoggs are BCS 3+ this year, only started feeding hay a couple of weeks ago and they get no concentrate.

Have they had a mineral drench?  We give all our lambs a drench (a good quality chelated one) going into winter.  If they are other than bouncy and happy, that would be worth doing too. 

Does the horse let the sheep eat the hay?

How many hoggs is it and how do you feed them? 

[vfr400boy]

8 lambs they get a flap of a small bale of hay on a morning but only eat about 3 /4 of it and go off grazing again and on a night I give them a 3kg bucket of lamb and ewe pencils they eat most of that before the horse gets ther and has a bit , thanks for replying

Vets want £42 to do a count the wormer is only £15 should I just worm them ?

I personally would just get the wormer. Preferably  a different one to that used last year.
