Something a little different to cow backsides for a changeโ€ฆ

Coffin joint injection in a performance horse.

Joint inflammation and osteoarthritis can present as lameness, stiffness, reduced range of motion or a subtle decline in performance.

Joint injections can be used alongside appropriate exercise management, rehabilitation and other treatments to help manage joint inflammation and osteoarthritis, keeping performance horses comfortable and performing at their best.

Calving Segregation in the West โ€“ Practical benefits for CWQ beef producers

Iโ€™ve put together a short document on how pregnancy testing with foetal ageing and calving segregation can be used to create more control, flexibility, and value in CWQ breeder operations โ€” without changing existing joining practices.

The document is available using the link ๐Ÿ”— below โ€” I hope you find it useful.
