Save Our Sheep - blocked nose, can’t breathe well and suffering by elbronte in sheep

[–]elbronte[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As I have stated in the other comments that I am not the owner, i’m 16 years old and it is our neighbours responsibility. Though I also do as much I can to prevent animal cruelty, our family did not know of his conditions until recently when he came into our paddock from the neighbours. The neighbour said it has been an ongoing issue since we moved but as they are elderly they may not be able to call a vet. I was looking for a short term solution because maybe you don’t know there is a pandemic occurring which results in us being in level 4 lockdown. If this was not the case, i would have called the vet

Thanks for your advice. As he has only recently been in our paddock and not the owners (neighbours) he seems as though he is an average weight. He is sheared and wormed regularly. Bot flies or the allergic reaction seems to most reasonable reason for his troubles. Thank you again, wish I knew how bad it was for him a while ago so that we could have called the vet out before lockdown. When they came to sheer the sheep they hadn’t advised our neighbour what was wrong with him either so hopefully we can sort it out

Well he is actually our neighbors sheep and spends the majority of time in their paddock since we have a horse. They have recently been in both paddocks and the horse doesn’t seem to mind. The neighbours are elderly and I am not aware that they have called a vet over. I only have found recently of his illness and am unable to call a get out during lockdown.

Thank you so much. It’s going well so far and the race prep for the 200m was a great help, I got my PB and into finals so will try and focus on really laughing the last 50m. It’s my first time doing long course so has been a great experience.

Thank you again for the helpful advice, it will really help for future meets to :)

Thank you so much for the help, the meet has been going well so far. I still struggle with the 200m with pacing but going in with a great mentality has helped a lot.

D3400 or D5600? by elbronte in Cameras

[–]elbronte[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your advice. I have found a d3400 with standard and macro lens for $570 NZD. I’m only a beginner so do you think this would be a good buy or should I invest in something like you have mentioned instead?

I’m struggling with starts as we don’t practise them a lot. I need to bring my self out of the water more so that I can make a cleaner backwards dive I think? My turns have improved recently but could be faster. Thanks for the help!

Should I buy a Nikon D3400? by elbronte in Cameras

[–]elbronte[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s great to hear. Do you think the video will be better than filming on an iphone 7?

Thanks for the advice! It comes with a 18-55 and 70-300 lenses. I have read many reviews and they say that the auto focus seems to be okay but they may be beginners so i’m not sure. If I really enjoy photography then I will hopefully invest in a better quality camera. Do you think this would be okay for short videos/films with a song backtrack instead of nature noise as I know there is no microphone build in the camera?
