A healthy herd is a happy and productive herd. Taking regular f***l samples to track parasite loads is paramount to your herds success. This is not a “one and done” practice it should be performed monthly, at a minimum, in order to determine trends within your herd. As the herd grows within the same space, increased testing should be performed to stay ahead of potential increased loads. This is something anyone can do that puts eyes on their animals. For absentee land owners, we do provide this service along with feed recommendations, species selection, herd inventory, surveys, and all TPWD documentation (including pen and release site permitting).
If you have any questions of why you should do this, what we are looking for, when to collect, or where to take the samples please feel free to reach out.
