Carol, I've lost my mind. *grin* We worm them with IVOMEC Sheep Drench! The Nutri Drench we give them as a pick-me-upper for the vitamins and minerals. I use the Ivomec when they are pregnant and the Cydectin when they are not and on the wethers/rams.
I really think I could get away with not worming the hair sheep (St. Croix, Barbs, and Katadin mixes), but am always afraid to. I have gone to a longer worming schedule and pasture rotation though. We used to worm every 4 months, 4 years ago. Now we worm about every 12-16 and I watch them carefully and worm almost accordingly, but still on a regular schedule.
