Latest on Bluetongue Virus

Low level spread has continued with a ram lamb in Staffordshire confirmed positive at the start of the month exhibiting typical signs.

We’ve had a number of farms using the Bluetongue vaccines. These reduce the spread of the virus within the animal and therefore reduce the clinical signs.

If you’d like any more information, please get in touch with us.

We will be holding a Red Tractor Medicines course at the Royal Oak Mayfield at 7pm on Tuesday 10th June.

This course will be run by our farm vet David to guide you through the various classes of medicines available and how to use them safely and effectively on farm.

The course will cost £20 for the first person and £15 for subsequent people so bring your plus one or two or three 😅

Pie and chips provided too 🥧 🍟 (ps. It never disappoints)

FREE SELEKT PUMP SERVICING

Wednesday 12th February there will be a free selekt pump servicing carried out at the farm.
These pumps get used a lot to administer fluids to cattle so get a good amount of wear and tear.

If you’d like this to be carried out just inform your vet and one of us will collect it from the farm in advance of Wednesday - and drop it back with you when it’s done.
