    Would your ewes not be immune from their previous exposure? I'm in similar
    position as yourself.

    Im not sure .I thought just the ones that got It would be immune
    They say to inject 3 weeks before going to the ram?
    So will have to sort it out soon
    Plus iv replacement still to buy
    The sale I buy them is a week before I put them with the ram , so ill have to delay the ram by two weeks

    If they were mine I wouldn't vaccinate the ones that was in the flock that had the abortion, but it'd be a brave man that'd advise you not to vaccinate.
    it costs around €4/ewe

    Is it effective rangler? Do you do all of yours?

    Yes, do the ewe lambs and we've never had a case since even though the reps say it only lasts 2 or 3 years.
    Enzo is harder controlled , you'll have cases for a few years after you start vaccinating but in s closed flock you can stop vaccinating when you're four or five years clear
