Fertility Testing of Bulls and Rams
We have electroejaculation equipment to assess the semen of rams and bulls. This service is very competitively priced and can be used prior to the ram or bull being used to be more confident of reproductive success. The service can also be used if there has been some doubt over the performance of a particular ram or bull.
For more information contact Ben or Zoe.

Heifer Pelvic Measurements
Remove the heifers that are more likely to have calving difficulties. The vet can also examine the reproductive tracts of the heifers at the same time and help you make selection decisions.

AHDB Mastitis Control Plans

Clinical and sub-clinical mastitis continues to be a major problem to the dairy industry. The AHDB mastitis control plan has saved the dairy industry millions of pounds in reduced medicine use and discarded milk. Dairy farms cannot afford to not have one of these in place- ask the farmers who have them!!!

In House Laboratory
A unique selling point of Usk Vets is the laboratory services we offer:
- FecPak System: This is the latest technology in the counting of worm eggs particularly in sheep faeces. The system is automated, gives a same day/ next day result (depending on time samples are dropped off) and is the most reliable system available.
- Calf scour rapid tests: These enable us to identify the four major organisms that cause calf scour (Cryptosporidium, E-coli, Rotavirus and Coronavirus). Appropriate treatment can then be given quickly.
