Description:

Every time an animal enters or re-enters a flock it poses the risk of bringing unwanted health challenges with it.

 

With sales in full swing, on this week’s OviCast we talk to Sheep Specialist, Michael Gottstein, about how to reduce the risks. 

 

What to look for before you buy:

·      Quarantine and parasite control plans

·      Reducing the risk of lameness in new arrivals

·      Using vaccination to protect your flock

 

This episode is a timely reminder for anyone planning to buy stock this season.
