Some routine FEC-testing of the lambs indicated that there may be a problem with intestinal infestation with worms, so they needed some treatment.
And the amount they are given depends on their weight - so we need to weoight them before dosing them.
We have a weighing crate so we needed to construct the race to get them lined up to be wieghed
And once weve done that, we need to get some sheep. This lot have been grazing on one of the more distant fields. So to bring them down and get thm in the right place we put up some electric fencing, bu without the electricity. They have (hopefully) learned not to touch the fence.
And once brought down, they need to be penned to stop them wandering
And once penned , and 'encouraged' to go into the race, they got weighed.
We only needed to dose the lambs, but as all the sheep were down , they all got weighed.
