It’s Love Lamb Week, and quality lambs start now.

Behind every successful lamb crop is careful planning long before lambing. During a recent visit to Nunwick Farm, we saw how attention to ewe condition, nutrition and health ahead of tupping helps lay the foundations for healthy, thriving lambs.

This Love Lamb Week, we're celebrating the dedication of UK sheep farmers and the incredible lamb they produce.

🐑 It's Love Lamb Week!

This week, we're celebrating the dedication, skill and commitment of sheep farmers across the UK who work tirelessly to produce high-quality British lamb.

Getting ewe nutrition right before tupping can have a huge impact on flock performance.

Fertility, conception rates and lamb vigour are all influenced by the nutritional status of the ewe long before the ram goes in. That's why David Thirlwell - Nunwick Farm places such a strong focus on body condition, trace element status and flock health in the weeks leading up to tupping.

As part of this approach ewes and gimmers receive a 20ml dose of Ovi-Thrive vitamin and trace element drench, helping to keep them on the right plane of nutrition ahead of breeding.

The results speak for themselves, with the flock achieving a 196% scanning percentage and 182% lambing percentage.

What should happen before the tups go in?

At Nunwick Farm, home to 1,000 Texel cross breeding ewes and 190 Stabiliser suckler cows, we follow the key health, nutrition and management steps that help set up a successful lambing season before tupping begins.

In this video, we visit Nunwick Farm to see how an entirely closed breeding system has been developed, producing replacement ewes in-house and giving greater control over fertility, health and flock performance.
