On-Farm Visits FAQs
Just a few common questions about On-Farm Visits. If there is something else you need to know just ask in the Contact Us form below!
Do I need yards or a crush for an on-farm visit?
For most cattle work, a race and crush (or an equivalent safe restraint option) is strongly recommended. For sheep and goats, good pens and a draft area usually work well. If you’re unsure what’s needed, tell us what facilities you have and we’ll plan around it.
Can you see more than one animal while you’re here?
Yes. It often helps to assess a small group, especially when signs are similar, or when you’re worried there may be a wider issue. Let us know approximate numbers when booking so we can allow enough time.
Will you bring everything needed for treatment?
We carry a wide range of medications and equipment, but some cases require lab testing, specialised tools, or hospital-based care. We’ll talk you through what can be done on-site and what would be safer or more effective at the clinic.
Do you cover areas outside town?
Often, yes. On-farm availability can depend on the day’s schedule and travel time. If you’re within Albury, Lavington, Thurgoona, Wodonga, Jindera, Howlong, Corowa, mention your locality when you call so we can coordinate the best timing.
