In this informative RU-vid video, we delve into the challenges faced during a scorching heat wave that poses risks to both humans and animals. With temperatures soaring to dangerous levels and humidex values nearing one hundred percent, working and breathing become uncomfortable, while the threat of thunderstorms looms.
Join us as we navigate through the precautions taken to ensure the well-being of our sheep. Due to the high risk of rain, haying continues while sheep work is kept to a minimum. Our top priorities today are providing fresh water to keep the sheep hydrated and safely storing all the hay.
Throughout the video, we discuss the signs of heat stress and breathing difficulties in sheep, which could potentially lead to pneumonia. We also shed light on how animals seek shelter, the risk of sunburns, and their reduced appetite during such extreme conditions.
Fortunately, most of our sheep have been shorn, aiding in their ability to cope with the heat. Additionally, we managed to stack the hay before the rain arrived. Join us as we hope for the heat to dissipate soon, ensuring the safety and well-being of our beloved sheep.
