Went to a farm and took bloods on 40 sheep to test for enzootic abortion. After a while the vet let me do it! There were some where I got the sample right away, and some where I basically got blood all over my hands. But it was still fun and it takes practice to get blood off a sheep trying quite hard to get away from you. Then we went to a few farms and did herd health plans and we took bloods off some yearling cows, who also were not too keep on it. I tried on 1 cow, and again most of it went on my hands, so some day I'll be able to take blood without it getting everywhere! But I suppose practice makes perfect! Also it was just a beautiful day, so it was do nice outside today! So being up on the farms in the sun with the sheep over the ocean was really just spectacular!
