Wherever you are in the world no doubt you are (or will be) facing challenges with your sheep at joining and in the final trimester of pregnancy. So in this ep we explore the main issues and what we do across our two hemispheres to deal with these issues and more importantly try to prevent them from happening. 
Prevention is always better than treatment but prevention is always possible either so it's prevention and preparation that are key!
