Wednesday 2nd October - Grazing Team Visit to Treat Limpy

Hi All, 

We came today with some feed to see if we could tempt limpy closer to catch him. When we caught him we discovered it was bad scauld and treated him with blue spray. There were a few other limpers present, upon catching them they had no visible ailments, so there's a few with slight sprains. These should improve on their own. 

Please keep an eye on limpy, he should improve over time. 

Best wishes
Grazing Team

    Thanks for the update Grace & the grazing team. I'm so pleased Limpy has been treated & I had been able to identify and report the issue. I honestly think he specifically gave me the wink and a limpy wave on two occasions to get that sorted. Bless him, thanks again.
