Sheep producers keen to kickstart the 2023 lambing season with a topical husbandry refresher – as well as gain some practical surplus lamb rearing tips – can register for a free advisory webinar being held at 12.15pm on Tuesday 28th February.

The one-hour interactive on-line training session, organised by Lamlac ewe milk replacer manufacturer Volac, will feature four expert speakers and a live link directly from the lambing shed on a 400-ewe farm in Essex.

Special guest, vet Rheinault (Reg) Jones, will discuss the factors affecting ewe colostrum production and what the newborn lamb needs from this liquid gold. Reg will be supported by three experienced Volac advisers, who will cover practical lambing tips, looking after the newborn lamb and the latest research into high-quality pre-weaning nutrition for any lambs reared off the ewe. All the speakers will be available for questions.
