Grass tetany is one of the challenges in early spring and on this week’s OviCast, Teagasc Sheep Specialist, Damian Costello, talks to us about this in more detail. 

 

Damian explains how it occurs, the pre-disposing factors and high risk periods. 

 

We discuss the symptoms and treatment in acute cases and Damian describes the various preventative measures and how these can be implemented on farms.
