Store Lambs Part 2

from OviCast Hosted by OviCast

Michael Gottstein re-joins us for the second part of the episode on store lambs, with a focus on those purchasing lambs. He highlights the importance of getting health treatments in place on arrival and what impact this has. We discuss expected performance, diets and mineral nutrition particularly for those lambs that will be intensively finished on farms, and explain the importance of feed and financial budgets and what hill flocks can do to improve saleability.
