I have worked with a range of stock since a young age, specialising in sheep and beef cattle. I am a highly experienced shepherd having run large numbers of breeding ewes. I have managed up to 7,500 breeding ewes at one time I am also experienced with smaller flocks as well as both indoor and outdoor lambing. My dogs and I can happily handle large mobs of sheep (4,000+) and do any form of task with them, or we can handle small groups of just a few. I am experienced in all aspects of beef and dairy cattle especially outdoor/grazing based aspects (worked on a 2,800 head beef grazing unit outside Shepton Mallet) including electric fencing, paddock and rotational grazing, sward management etc, as well as calving and calf rearing. My dogs are also able to work cattle if needed. I am very interested in and pleased to be able to carry out post mortems on sheep and am highly experienced in the medical side of sheep or beef. Particularly around lambing time
