UW Extension to offer lambing webinar series next month

On Tuesday, March 17, the University of Wyoming Extension Sheep Task Force will host a free webinar about managing flock health around lambing season. The webinar, which is the first of two episodes, will discuss strategies for mitigating ewe and lamb stress from late gestation through docking. 

The second webinar will be hosted Thursday, March 26. Both webinars will be held 6-7:30 p.m. on Zoom.

Topics are colostrum and orphan lamb management on March 17 and metabolic stress of ewes through late gestation and early lactation on March 26.

The sessions will be led by members of the UW Extension Sheep Task Force and feature guests from the industry. The Sheep Task Force supports Wyoming’s sheep producers facing current industry challenges through evidence-based research and on-the-ground implementation.
