The Conveyor's been and gone

Setting up, this time to give all the ewes a drench (usually only the twinners and skinnys get one now) as after the hard winter think everything needs as much help as possible to get through lambing.  Often the worms really escalate once the ewe has lambed and the grass starts to grow,  so this should help.  Also added to the worm drench has been some multi mineral mix to help ewe and lambs.  They also have a vaccination against clostridial diseases (eg - tetanus, blood poisoning).  


                  Conveyor is leaving 2 1/2 hours later - great job done.  This used to take the Boss about 3 days by himself.


"We've got sick of waiting, time to help ourselves to breakfast! "  The fact it was on the trailer and for the horses didn't much matter - the girls were hungry!!
