Basic Lambing Skills Webinar

January 20, 2021

Basic Lambing Skills Webinar

Prepare for the upcoming lamb crop by learning about ewe and lamb care before, during and after parturition, during a University of Wisconsin-Madison Division of Extension Small Ruminant webinar on Jan. 20 from 7:30 to 9 p.m. central standard time.

The session will be led by Todd Taylor, University of Wisconsin Sheep Research Program Manager of the Arlington Agricultural Research Station Sheep Unit. He will discuss lambing supplies, lambing management, and ewe and lamb care.

The Small Ruminant webinar series, part of extension's Farm Ready Research series, provides a new spin on the long-standing and popular sheep production video conferencing series that connected sheep and goat producers around the state.

There is no charge to participate in the sessions, but pre-registration is required to allow access to the session. You can register for this event here: https://extension.wisc.edu/agriculture/farm-ready-research/?trumbaEmbed=view%3Devent%26eventid%3D149684065.
