Hi,
Firstly HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all
Not sure what to do - last year I gave all (eight) girls their Heptavacs on the 1st Jan as they were all due to lamb begining/mid Feb.
This year due to one getting caught by one of the ram lambs (thankfully not one of her boys, they had already gone to market so not related) so I have ONE due in the next couple of weeks and the other THREE not due until March.
When do you suggest I give Heptavac - if I do all now as annual booster then they (3) will be beyond the 4-6 weeks. To buy a bottle for 1 jab is expensive (not that I'm a meany, (I haven't found anyone local doing their ewes, all either now lambing so too late or not doing them yet as they aren't lambing until March/April....) Or do I wait until 1st one lambs then do her and the lamb/s at three weeks which will be right for the others 4-6 weeks but then they will be over the annual time so would need another one 6 weeks later.....could do with a sctach your head icon here......
Any help will be gratefully recieved
