It's s report from Sheep Ireland App. It's limited how much information available from Sheep Ireland. I'm currently trying out 2 other software packages for performance recording. Will make a video on it soon.... reader is an APR600.
Breed certainly has a bearing on lambing difficulties but body condition and especially diet in the last 6 weeks of pregnancy has a significant influence.
Hi JP. I use the APR600, hasn't a great reach but find it easy to put plenty of data in especially at lambing. Will make a video on the software package I'm using around lambing time...
I always give them another chance. Found it very unusual that a young sheep will not produce a lamb at some stage. Also noticed empties in the young sheep becoming more of a problem every year so I vaccinated all hoggets and ewe lambs for Toxo and Enzo this year..
The ewes were fasting for 2 hours or so. The ones we couldn't find didn't fast at all. It made things a little slower. Will run through the software I'm using in the near future, video in the pipeline..
Hi Maurice. I was using paper for all record keeping but I found this becomes less useful and time consuming as the amount of data increases. The EID reader can transfer all data to the computer by simply plugging it in. The data is much easier to make use of when on the computer.

Do you feel like the breed of sheep makes a difference when it comes to forage vs birth weights or lambing difficulties?
Breed certainly has a bearing on lambing difficulties but body condition and especially diet in the last 6 weeks of pregnancy has a significant influence.
Is that a specific SW package?
I used TGM with the AWR300 reader. Find it pretty good.

Do you cull empty hoggets or give them another chance?
I always give them another chance. Found it very unusual that a young sheep will not produce a lamb at some stage. Also noticed empties in the young sheep becoming more of a problem every year so I vaccinated all hoggets and ewe lambs for Toxo and Enzo this year..
How long did you fast the ewes for scanning and what is the app you’re using at the end? Im enjoying your videos Thanks
The ewes were fasting for 2 hours or so. The ones we couldn't find didn't fast at all. It made things a little slower. Will run through the software I'm using in the near future, video in the pipeline..
Are they llyens ur working with
Will do a video around lambing about the type of ewes I'm running...
What is the breed
Lleyn sheep...👌
Hi, what is the EID reader you use?
What would you consider to be the pro's and cons of it, in terms of keeping records?
Hi Maurice. I was using paper for all record keeping but I found this becomes less useful and time consuming as the amount of data increases. The EID reader can transfer all data to the computer by simply plugging it in. The data is much easier to make use of when on the computer.
EID reader is Agrident APR600.
@@sheepschool365 Thanks. I'm at the 'using paper and Excel sheets' stage currently 😄
