It's quickly rolling around to that time of year again when we think towards tupping! Using a vasectomised or 'teaser' tup can help reduce the length of the lambing period by helping bring ewes into season ahead of putting them with the rams, allowing a tighter period of mating. This involves taking out the part of the tups anatomy that connects the testicles to the p***s. This means that they will still have the hormones of a ram but no ability to get ewes in lamb! πŸ‘β™‚οΈ

In order to make sure we have no viable s***m still floating around we want to get our tups vasectomised 60 days before they go in with ewes. They should be healthy animals with no history of issues such as pneumonia etc. They want to go in around 2 weeks before the rams and the ewes need to have been away from the smell and presence of tups for a good month before using a tup, for maximum effectπŸ“…

If you would like to have a tup/s vasectomised, please ring in and book - we tend to do these out of our lambing rooms, meaning you can leave the tups to be done with us and collect later in the day πŸ›»

We are running another medicines course next Friday at the practice - please let us know if you would like to attend! πŸ’ŠπŸ’‰
