Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

  1. Call the office on 01256 381190.
  2. If no one answers, wait for the answering message which will detail the name and mobile number of the member of staff who is currently on call.
  3. Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly.

NOTES:

  • Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call.

  • If you are unsure if a particular situation qualifies as an emergency then please phone the on-call member of staff anyway so that they can make the decision on how to proceed.

  • Most importantly of all – please do not report injuries or sick animals via the blog alone – always call the emergency on-call contact.


    Thank you!

    Viewed today 2.00 pm. Very heavy overnight rain so ground is wet, large puddles and generally soggy. light rain still at 2.00 pm. Found all 3 cows together laying down and looking quite contented chewing cud in the open at L6. Left them laying. Concerned for  Rosemary, she appears to have a large scar (about 9 in long) on the rear left flank - bare skin showing. Not sure if very wet hair is simply matting and showing skin beneath but would like second opinion.

    1. The scar that you witnessed as a result of her lying down is an old C-section scar she inherited a few years back before we bought her for our herd. It is difficult to see when she is standing,hence you noticing it for first time now.

      Good spot and always best to ask
