Want trouble-free lambing next year with no late nights?
Well, we can’t promise that!
But we might be able to make things a little bit easier.
Using hormones to synchronise ewe oestrus can condense lambing into fewer weeks, meaning less sleepless nights.
It has other advantages too, including:
- Maximising labour efficiency during your busiest periods
- Simplifying feeding and management by producing highly uniform lambs
- Streamlining health interventions such as vaccination and colostrum management
- Better planning for market time*
- Increase twinning rate potential
- Enhance the use of your best rams
- Makes advance breeding techniques like AI more accessible
So, it might not be the answer to all your lambing stress, but it could help make it that bit easier.
Speak to your vet about sheep hormones and synchronising oestrus.
