Veterinary Supplies: Ready for Everyday Animal Health
When an animal goes lame, runs a temperature or needs treating, every minute counts. With the right kit in the cupboard you act straight away instead of hunting around for it. Our veterinary supplies cover the basic veterinary care you carry out in the shed: injecting, dosing, dressing, checking and keeping things hygienic. Everything here is built for the rough daily routine of livestock farming.
Treating, dosing and dressing
For injections and oral dosing you will find syringes and needles as well as drenchers and bolus guns that get liquids safely into the mouth. If an animal is injured, bandaging materials from the padding bandage through to self-adhesive tape do the job. When a difficult birth is on the cards, calving ropes, calving aids and lubricant gel are within easy reach. Add to that veterinary instruments such as a scalpel handle, suture needles and artery forceps for minor procedures agreed with your vet, plus dehorners for calves.
Checking, hygiene and prevention
Spot a problem early and the treatment costs you less. Thermometers with a short reading time or infrared measurement tell you where you stand in seconds, and a livestock scale makes daily gains and development visible. For hygiene there are disinfectants for hands, skin and shed surfaces plus disposable gloves in several sizes, so every treatment stays clean. Animal care products for skin, udder and coat belong here just as much as hoof care, which in cattle, sheep and goats often decides between lameness and good performance.
Frequently asked questions
What belongs in a well stocked farm medicine cabinet?
A thermometer, syringes and needles, disposable gloves, disinfectant, bandaging material and a drencher make a solid base. On top of that comes whatever your species needs, such as birthing aids for cattle and pigs or hoof care products for cattle and sheep.
How do I store veterinary supplies properly?
Dry, dust free, cool and out of reach of children. Needles and instruments stay in their original packaging until you need them. Check the expiry dates on disinfectants and care preparations regularly and top up consumables before they run short.
Which species is the range aimed at?
The focus is on cattle, pigs, sheep and goats. Many items such as gloves, thermometers, bandaging material and disinfectant suit every species, while birthing aids, dehorning and hoof care come in species specific versions.
Veterinary Supplies for the Daily Round
When an animal needs treating, it often comes down to whether everything is to hand. For injections there are Syringes & Needles, from the single use syringe to the self-filling syringe for a whole batch of vaccinations, and for anything that goes in through the mouth you will find Drenchers & Bolus Guns with probes, bottles and bolus applicators. If an animal is injured you reach for Bandaging Materials made up of gauze bandages, wadding and self-adhesive tapes, and for skin and wounds for the ointments and sprays under Animal Care Products. Scalpel, surgical suture needles, artery forceps and trocar sit under Veterinary Instruments. The daily check is covered by a Thermometer and by the Livestock Scales, which give you the figures for weight gain and dosing. Then there is the work that comes round every year: Hoof Care with knives, shears, grinding discs, care products and bandages for cattle, sheep and goats, Birthing Aids with ropes, snares and hooks for calf, lamb and piglet, and the Dehorner for the calf in its first weeks of life. Hygiene is covered by Disposable Gloves up to shoulder length and Disinfectants for hands, surfaces and the shed entrance.
