Over night 1 of my lambs has been attacked and now sadly has been pts, I am going to bring the rest in but can't get hold of any straw no one has any, I have got plenty of shaving will it be ok to use these whilst I am still searching for straw.

Thanks

Yes. We used Hemcore in the lambing pens this year and it worked fine.

Sorry to hear about the lamb.  :(
