Freelance Shepherd sought - Herefordshire
« on: June 25, 2021, 01:08:26 pm »
Hello, we have a small holding 30 mins south of Hay on Wye Herefordshire.  Our first year, we have 12 ewes (and 18 lambs) needing rounding up for hooves treatment, heptivac'ing and shearing.  Poss you may know someone locally who is able to carry all this out for us - thanks very much !

Just a thought. You could always find a shearer to clip them, and then have the vet show you how to do their feet (if any need doing, routine trimming isn’t really needed) and heptavac the lambs. Then you know for the future how to do it on your own  :idea:
