My nag is on regumate pretty much solid from March through to about September as she is very seasonal and quite dangerous at times.

This year however I have noticed that it doesnt appear to be quite as effective as in the past (she is 7 and has been on it since 5 so this is her third year). She is very affected when her field mates are in season, get very clingy, has separation anxiety and has at times tried to mount them :) Some of the things she used to do when in season herself

Apart from being a randy old bird, could this be a sign she is getting 'used' to the regumate? Is this possible? She is on regumate porcine.

Or is it perhaps a case of upping the dose a little? She gets one pump in her feed every evening - she is approx 660kg but its nigh on impossible to do 'a pump and a half' with the bottles i have

Any thoughts? thanks so much in advance!
