I am a lifetime follower of your after this video brother. Your lesson about not preemptively de worming your heard fits in nicely with my understanding of antibiotic resistant strain of bacteria in humans. The over prescription of anti biotics has caused and will cause more "superbugs", disease resistant strains of pathogenic microbes. You a killing it 👏

Thanks. So, its best to have at least 8 fields for rotation? Can you put horses in a field that you just moved goats out of? Or, will they also get the same worms?
@rollingofarm6 ай бұрын
If you do weekly rotations, eight paddocks works very well. It is OK to put horses in, because they do not get the same parasites as Goats and Sheep.

*SUBSCRIBED* Great info. Between you & Greg Judy, you remind me of my “nana”; Old school, thoughtful farmers. Question, what has been your experience with “natural, preventative, deworming? If seen farmers give a “homemade, dewormer ball, including; molasses, turmeric, a small amount of oats, pumpkin seeds, garlic, & ginger, rolled into balls &, fresh pumpkin w/ the seeds. I’m curious about how many days per week to offer fresh pumpkin & these preventative, deworming treat-balls to the goats & sheep, 2-3 x’s weekly? In addition, I’d like to Sprinkle diamacious (sp) earth, coupled w/ rotational grazing. I’d keep a strong, pharmaceutical grade, anti-parasitic on hand & treat as required/necessary. Trying to prevent a super infection. Lmk your thoughts on my work in progress. Thanks again for your succinct & helpful tips!

does bush hogging a pasture help with sheep worm

Probably not. My understanding is that the worm larva are on the bottom 3-4” which is usually not affected by bush hogging.

I have four baby lamb all are 3 months old. I plan to keep them in confinement to help minimized parasite and protect them from bob cat and coyotes that are prevailing where I lived. Do you think this practice will help, and should I be concern with other diseases/illness when housing the sheep in closed shelter?

You will need to keep the area clean and not let manure build up. If you keep it clean and dry you will greatly reduce your problems.

I'm starting to rotationally graze with two goats, and I put them up in the horse trailer at night that travels with them and holds the water/minerals etc. Can I mitigate problems with worms with poop in the trailer simply by sweeping/cleaning out the horse trailer when moving?

What if you don't have enough pastures and feed hay
@rollingofarm3 ай бұрын
If you are truly “dry lotting” (no grass, just dirt) and feeding hay, worms should not be a big problem. They pick up the worm larva from grass. Hay should be larva free (can’t survive in dried hay). However if you have just a little grass that they graze very close they may be picking up worm larva.

What would u suggest for a small herd with just 3 paddocks ?
@rollingofarm2 жыл бұрын
Probably just move them every 2-3 weeks. Or better if you could use portable fencing to subdivide paddocks into smaller areas.
@shelleypilcher3812 Жыл бұрын
Have a nice shelter of shade where they would mostly poop. Then you keep all poop there mostly when they stand up and that would control their poop. I never thought of it, but maybe that's why some fenced paddocks have no trees ect for shade. Bad advice thou. I'd never recommend animals stay in a pen with no large vegetation for them to live with. Hmm?
@shelleypilcher3812 Жыл бұрын
My goats (under 100) graze on 100 ac. They seem to work themselves. Mostly never worming and they are thriving. There's not much pine at all which acts as a natural dewormer. Do you know what else could be worming them out there?
@rollingofarm Жыл бұрын
That is great! I would guess your stocking rate is so low that it is hard for there to be much of a build up of worms on the property. Could also be climate (if you live in a drier area).
