  1. Do your sheep need Copper? Ask your Vet & do some laboratory tests on liver and take blood samples. If your sheep need Copper to get good growth & prevent swayback then use a drench  containing copper, but do not overdose.
  2. Lick buckets can be good to supply some minerals not in your boluses or drench , but drenches and boluses are more reliable for Copper, Cobalt, and Selenium & Iodine as you know the sheep gets its dose.
  3. Drench at first worming & at weaning with Ovi-Power "CoppaGrow" or Ovi-Power No Added Copper
  4. Ewes - either drench with Ovi-Power "CoppaGrow" or Ovi-Power No Added Copper
