Killing your sheep with kindness - introducing your sheep to supplementary feed

Saison 3 · Épisode 27

Get in touch to share sheeping stories or questions anytime!

So what mistakes do you need to be aware of when it comes to introducing your sheep to new feed like grain or pellets? We can end up killing our sheep with kindness by introducing too much too soon.

In this episode we explore how to start your sheep on a new feeding regime and even if you need to do this at all. How much to give each type of sheep and what can you do to ensure they transition to a new feed well.

What are the signs of a sheep who has had too much grain and what can you do about it if it happens.

Sheep yard design on a budget!

Saison 3 · Épisode 26

Sheep Infrastructure design tips

Sheep yards are the main sheep handling complex on a farm and need to be designed and built to provide efficient sheep handling. Sheep need to move well in the yards and we all want to handle our sheep safely.

Good sheep yards confine and control the movement of sheep. Good yard set up helps us to achieve a high quality work rate with a minimum of physical effort.

This should be done in a pleasant and safe working environment for humans and animals alike!

So where do you start with setting up or improving your sheep yard infrastructure?

Your site selection consider these factors:

• ease of access from all parts of the property including access to power for muscle or pregnancy scanning

• slope of land to assure good drainage

• effect of prevailing winds on working conditions and dust control

• situation of the yards in relation to existing trees which can provide shade and protection

• access to a water supply for livestock drinking, dust control, and cleaning.

Yard size

The main yards should be large enough to handle the biggest mob on the property. Yard size is determined by a combination of the selected design, the capacity of the working race and the size of the flock to be handled. The holding yards should be large enough for mobs of ewes and lambs at weaning. Adjoining mini-paddocks including a water point increase the number of mobs that can be handled in a set of yards.

Provide 1 m2 per three sheep in forcing areas and at least 1 m2 per sheep in holding areas.

Ovine Brucellosis - everything you need to know

Saison 3 · Épisode 25

Technology and good biosecurity practices can protect you from big losses when it comes to Ovine Brucellosis. Colin Chapman, Professor and Dorset Downs stud breeder leads us through the best ways to tackle and prevent this mostly hidden from view infection.

What is Ovine Brucellosis?

It’s caused by a bacteria called Brucella Ovus, which is one of several different types of Brucella. “It lives only in sheep, it doesn’t live on the ground or in the water. It spends it’s entire life cycle in sheep, which fortunately makes it easier to control because you don’t have to eradicate it in the environment as well” he explains.

Ovine Brucellosis (OB) quite different to Bovine Brucellosis, which causes the cow to become sick and abort their calf. The cow and calf are both infected with this type of Brucellosis, and it’s also infectious to humans. Bovine Brucellosis has now been eradicated in Australia.

What problems does it cause in sheep?

When Brucellosis is in your flock of sheep you don’t notice it. “The sheep are not unwell What you do notice is that you will have a drop in fertility and the ewes don’t have as many lambs as expected. A reduction in lambing percentage over time could indicate that it is present in your flock”, says Colin.

Colin goes on to explain that on closer inspection you may find that the rams have lumps and bumps in the testicles, but apart from palpating the testicles of the rams there is nothing to see. It is mostly invisible except for the records which show a reduction in lambing percentage.

Is it time to put your sheep on a diet? Obesity isn't good for anyone!

What are the issues with overweight sheep? Can it cause animal welfare issues, reproduction issues and health issues?

In this episode we explore what happens when sheep get fat, what is the impact for ewes and wethers and what to do about this.

Sheep well!

Smart Shepherding with Science

Saison 3 · Épisode 22

lundi 14 mars 2022 • Durée 01:01:20

Get in touch to share sheeping stories or questions anytime!

Meet Jon Hickford a Professor at Lincoln Uni and learn about gene testing in sheep and what benefits it can offer us as sheep breeders.

Smart Shepherding with Science

How technology can help sheep breeders reduce and even almost eradicate devastating diseases in their flock. In this article we talk with Jon Hickford, a Professor at Lincoln University in New Zealand, about gene testing to breed better animals that are naturally resistant and are more productive.

WHY ARE GENES SO IMPORTANT?

The basis of breeding is knowing that something has some degree of heritability says Jon Hickford. Jon is an acclaimed researcher and lecturer in Science and Agriculture with over 30 years of experience. We know that highly heritable traits can be bred for easily and vice versa for low heritability traits. We've now come to a better understand that that's all driven by the genes, by the DNA of an animal, or plant or human. So Jon and his team at Lincoln University in New Zealand aim to understand how DNA affects the performance of livestock, and has a big impact on livestock productivity and performance.

Jon and his team’s research looks for those genes that underpin diseases or other characteristics that can severely diminish the performance of an animal or cause it some sort of health or welfare effect. For some of the diseases of livestock it is a single gene defect. A lot of the research has been done in Australia with Australian stud breeders, focusing on eradicating particular forms of genes that are really quite devastating to the sheep industry.
