As I move into my third trimester, I'm starting to make a few adjustments to how I'll be working over the coming months as we prepare to welcome our little lady at the beginning of February.
⚖️ 𝑾𝒆𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒅𝒈𝒆 𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒔
I'll continue weighing horses until the end of November. If you have a weighbridge visit booked, I'd really appreciate being able to park as close to the set-up area as possible to help minimise carrying equipment.
From December through to March, I won't be undertaking weighbridge visits unless you're happy to help me carry and set up the weighbridge. It's heavy equipment to move around, and a helping hand will make all the difference!

The good news is that I'll continue carrying out faecal egg counts (FECs) throughout the winter, so this service will remain available.
For those who've already spoken to me about February visits, please rest assured these will still go ahead as planned. My partner may be the one collecting your samples during this time.
Moving forwards - If you're happy for me to take samples back to my base for processing, rather than processing them on-site, this would also be a massive help.

Our little lady is due at the beginning of February, and I'll be taking a short period of time off following her arrival. The website shop will be closed during this time, and I'm currently aiming to return to working with clients around mid-to-late March.
Things may look a little different when I'm back, and there's a good chance our little lady will be joining me on visits! It's all part of figuring out this new chapter while continuing to do something I love.
Where possible, I'd encourage you to book your spring visits early so we can get things planned in advance.
To everyone I've spoken to about these changes already, thank you so much for being so understanding and supportive. Being self-employed and preparing for life with a baby brings a few extra challenges, and knowing I have such lovely clients behind me really does mean a lot. 🫶
Thank you all for your continued support of NutriFEC. I'm looking forward to keeping things moving, with a few adjustments along the way!
