Lambs:

Lambs are currently vaccinated against clostridial diseases and Pasteurellosis with Ovivac-P™ at 4 and 8 weeks of age.

Various other vaccines are available against other diseases but are not applicable to Lackham at present. The intention is to have a high health status sheep flock dependant upon eradication of disease rather than control. Vaccines will therefore only be used as a last resort.

Ewes & rams:

All ewes receive a dose of Heptavac-P™ at least 4 weeks before lambing. No other vaccines are currently employed.
