You asked, we answered.

Post-weaning weight loss is one of the most common concerns — and Dr Jessica Cooke’s advice from our Winning at Weaning webinar is clear: Start reducing milk temperature before weaning to encourage creep intake, don't put lambs straight out to grass, and keep creep available at the same level to compensate for the milk they're no longer getting 🐑

Small steps in preparation can make a real difference to the transition.

You asked, we answered.

One of the questions raised at our Winning at Weaning webinar: if a ewe has triplets, should you remove one or leave all three on her?"

Dr Jessica Cooke recommends removing the strongest lamb, giving it stored or replacement colostrum, and leaving two on the ewe — so you can be confident each one is getting what it needs 🍼
