PED Case Study

This case occurred in the very early stages of the Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED) outbreak in Ontario. It involves a farrow-to-finish farm, located in southwestern Ontario, which is a liquid-feed facility with more than 500 sows. The owners (Van Deelen family) have been in the business for 10 years and the attending veterinarian was Dr. Sue Burlatschenko. It was the fourth herd in Canada to be diagnosed with PED in late January 2014.  Click here to read the full case study

The Ewe I've Been Waiting For Has Lambed!

Video: The Ewe I've Been Waiting For Has Lambed!

The ewe I have been waiting for to have lambs has finally lambed. She is one of our favorite sheep at Ewetopia Farms and she is also one of our oldest ewes. She was so round with lambs that she was almost prolapsing from the pressure of the size of her belly. We thought she would be one of the first to give birth, but she was one of the last in the first group! Come see who it was and see how lambing worked out for her.
