⭐ Meet the team ⭐

Holly is our fabulous Vet Tech! She compliments our services by offering freeze branding, disbudding, ROMS mobility scoring and much more on a regular or ad hoc basis. She is also currently in the process of becoming an ATT (approved tuberculin tester).

In her spare time Holly and her Fiancé run a small beef and sheep farm with help from the dog team Kit and Bruce who you may see in the office.

Feel free to ring into the office to have a quick chat with our Hol, to see if there’s anything she can help with on farm! ☎️

‼️Nematodirus‼️

We have started to make some early diagnosis’s of lamb deaths due to Nematodirus.

Nematodirus risk factors: 🪱
- Lambs at grass grazed by lambs the previous year
- Lambs 6-12 weeks old (that are starting to graze) most at risk but can be younger if ewe milk poor
- Nematodirus forecasts currently showing between moderate to very high risk (depending on location and altitude)

What else??
- Nematodirus causes high numbers of mortalities and stunted growth
- Treat with a white (BZ-1) drench ensuring a calibrated dosing gun, dosing to the heaviest weight
- It may be necessary to treat more than once

Lamb losses
- If you are experiencing any lamb losses we recommend bring them down to the surgery for post mortem examination. There are a number of factors that can cause lamb deaths, individual to a farm and management system. Ensuring a plan of action relevant to your system is key 🔑
- Ring in to discuss with our vets ☎️
