The latest edition of Beyond the Bale (Dec 2019) features an interview with Audrey Bird, one of our Numnuts pioneers, talking about her experience using Numnuts earlier this year:
“We definitely noticed an improvement when using Numnuts, both in the yards and when walking them back to their paddock. In the yards they were visually calmer, and appeared to be experiencing less pain and when they were going back to their mums they weren’t squirming around like they can sometimes do. They walked back to the paddock and mothered up easier.”
