Synod Inn area West Wales

Bring a sheep sample and I will talk you through a simple in house FEC method etc hopefully allowing you to confidently begin doing your own FECs on farm. £20 pp

Thank you

Yes I can show you how to do the FECs one to one, plenty of sheep to hand. It will show most of the worms you would be interested in

and yes it does make you a sad individual - you will feel right at home ;)

So - does one need one's own microscope in order to do these tests at home?

First course run today, adapted to include assessment of fat lambs for market and a few other topics. It seemed to go well!
