Yellow Wormer for Lambs
« on: June 04, 2018, 07:09:26 pm »
I had my vets do an FEC test today - ewes came back with nothing but the lambs had a very high nematode count (no physical signs of any scouring etc).

The last wormer I did them with was a white one called Benzimole. So the vet said any yellow or clear wormer would be best to use. Just wondered what peoples recommendations are for a yellow wormer?

I'm starting to steer away from Mole's own medicines as I find them quite weak and not very effective.

 nematodirus battus is what i presume you have ---treat ASAP with any wormer as there is little recorded resistance to any of them from nemo
I use MVF wormers and find they work as well as any other brand ---what's your farm resistance status
