Keep Sheep Feet
Trimmed
Foot problems keep sheep from
performing at the highest levels.
So tnm the feet of all sheep twice
a year with a sharp knife,
pruning shears or foot-rot shears,
say Extension animal science
specialists at The Pennsylvania
State University And keep a
sharp lookout for other foot
problems. Catch lame sheep and
examine their feet as soon as you
notice the lameness
