Newsletters

Welcome to our first newsletter of 2021 where we review our recent zoom mastitis meeting and revisit pneumonia as we reach its favourite time of year. Also including horses, fridges and old cows!

This month we look at IBR and what the incidence of this and other infectious diseases is like in our area following our recent bulk milk survey. Dates for your diary include an online Red Tractor approved medicine course and details of small holder events. Calf scour caused by crypto is also a hot topic at this time of year as bugs build up in sheds and don't forget to have a go at Beth's Christmas crossword for a chance to win some chocolate!

Dermatitis in both sheep and cattle, leptospirosis and its threat to us and our cows are included this month along with some staff news and dates for your diary.

This month we talk about herd health plans and how to get the best from them, salmonella and the most common sheep killer at this time of year, pasteurella. Also hear about our directors bake off challenge for MacMillan where you'll see Jim and Mark not in their usual attire!

As Autumn closes in we speak of calf lung health, umbilical hernias, and two things we'd never thought we'd see, a client telling us we save him money and us entering the world of virtual meetings! 

August brings us sheep, feet and ram MOT's as we get ready for the tupping season.
