Farm Animals

At Bredy Vets, our small, dedicated, and experienced team of vets provide a wide range of large animal services to our local farmers. We treat dairy, beef, sheep, goats, camelids, pigs and poultry, as well as other exotic species.

We deal with large herds as well as small-holdings. Our 24 hour emergency call out service enables us to provide a highly responsive service at all times, as well as being available to discuss any problems or give advice over the phone, no matter how big or small.
