THE JACKSON RING · CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI · FLOWOOD TO VICKSBURG
Vets near Jackson
Twelve practices, every one of them read off its own website. Two of them say on their own site that somebody is there overnight, and both sit in the suburbs east and north of town. Everything else on this page is daylight work and waits under it.
If it's an emergency, call before you drive.
“open 24 hours a day, seven days a week”

In here because the practice's own website says it treats cattle, horses, sheep or goats. A clinic that only mentions dogs and cats is not in this lane no matter how good it is. Four out of twelve is the whole finding — most of the Jackson ring is town work.
Their large-animal page runs under two headings — “Equine Care” and “Bovine Services” — so horses and cattle, in their own words. Nowhere on the site do they say whether they drive out, so they are not in the farm-call lane. Ask when you ring.

Large-animal services for “horses, cows, goats, and more”, and they come to you: “Our fully equipped ambulatory trucks bring veterinary care directly to your farm or pasture.” On nights they go further than anybody else in this ring — “Our large animal team is available 24/7, offering reliable and consistent emergency care”, and “24-hour emergency coverage within our service area”. Read that as a truck on call for livestock, not a lit hospital you can drive a dog to at 3 a.m.; the lobby keeps the hours below.

A truck, not a building — “a mobile service that provides veterinary care services for our beloved patients at your home or farm”. Bovine: “Vaccinations, deworming, dehorning, castrations, etc.” Equine: “limited wellness exams, wound care, deworming, health certificates, and coggins”. Caprine and Porcine: “Hoof trimming, vaccinations, deworming”. Their stated territory is “Serving Rankin, Madison, Hinds, Simpson, Scott counties and beyond”.
Hours are not published on their site.

Plainly stated on the front page: “routine large animal services for cattle, horses, goats, and sheep”. The word routine is theirs and it is doing work — there is no emergency claim and no farm-call claim anywhere on the site, so this is daylight, haul-in livestock work.

The other half of the same errand
The vet is one number. The farm you're hauling to is in the Almanac.
Tramel Farms keeps the sister book — the working farms, stands and homesteads on this same ring. Same rule about not making things up, different page. The farms near Jackson keep this book honest: when a grower tells us who they call at two in the morning, that name gets checked against the practice's own site before it gets printed here.
SAME RING · SAME COUNTIES · DIFFERENT BOOK
The Jackson ring on the Almanac ↗Poultry & goats
The hardest lane to fill honestly. A practice is in here only if its own site names chickens, goats or both. “Exotics” alone does not count, and neither does a photo of a hen. In this ring the lane came back lopsided, and the finding under the rows says how.
Goats are named in the large-animal line — “horses, cows, goats, and more” — and the same page says the trucks come to the farm or pasture. No mention of chickens or poultry anywhere on the site.
Monday-Friday: 7:30am - 5:30pm; Saturday: 8:00am - 10:00am (lobby services and boarding pick-up/drop-off only); Sunday: Closed

The only practice in this ring with goats under their own heading. Caprine and Porcine: “Hoof trimming, vaccinations, deworming” — caprine is goats, and hoof trimming is the job nobody wants to drive for. Mobile, so they bring it to the pen. No poultry on the site.
Hours are not published on their site.

Goats and sheep both, in the same breath as the cattle: “routine large animal services for cattle, horses, goats, and sheep”. Haul-in only as far as the site says. No poultry anywhere on it.
Monday-Wednesday: 7:30am-5:00pm; Thursday: 8:00am-12:00pm; Friday: 7:30am-5:00pm; Saturday: 8:00am-12:00pm; Sunday: Closed

CHICKENS, SPECIFICALLY — NONE
We went through all twelve sites looking for a chicken, a hen, a bird, a flock, the word poultry — anything. Not one practice in this ring puts it in writing. Three of them say goats and say it clearly, which is why the lane is not empty; the poultry half of it is. If you keep a backyard flock near Jackson, this book has no name for you yet, and we would rather tell you that than hand you a small-animal clinic and let you find out in the parking lot.
Farm call
They come to you, and their own site says so. Where the site puts a limit on it — a service area, a client-only rule, a preference for hauling in — the limit is printed with the listing instead of being smoothed over.
“Our fully equipped ambulatory trucks bring veterinary care directly to your farm or pasture.” The round-the-clock part carries their own boundary on it — “24-hour emergency coverage within our service area” — and they do not publish where that area ends. That is the qualifier: ask them on the first call, not on the worst night.
Monday-Friday: 7:30am - 5:30pm; Saturday: 8:00am - 10:00am (lobby services and boarding pick-up/drop-off only); Sunday: Closed

The whole practice is the farm call — “a mobile service that provides veterinary care services for our beloved patients at your home or farm”. Five counties named and no fence around it: “Serving Rankin, Madison, Hinds, Simpson, Scott counties and beyond”. There is no clinic address to haul to, so ring first and say where you are.

The other six
Six of twelve · dogs and catsWHAT THEY DON'T CLAIM
Six practices in this ring say nothing on their own website about cattle, horses, goats or chickens, and nothing about coming out to you or staying open past supper. That keeps them out of all four lanes above, and it is not a mark against any of them — a town clinic that never pretended to be a cow vet is exactly what it says it is. They are listed below because you asked for vets near Jackson and these are vets near Jackson, hours in their own words. If you have got a heifer down, go back up the page.
In town
Dogs, cats and whatever else walks in the door. Alphabetical, same as everywhere else — we don't rank anybody, and there is nothing on this page for sale.
The one in this six that gets close. Their site says they'll see “a dog, cat, pocket pet, exotic, or farm animal” — but it names no species, publishes no livestock page and never says it makes farm calls, so a phrase is all it is and a phrase does not put a practice in a lane. Worth a phone call if you are stuck; not worth a drive on our say-so.
Monday – Friday: 7:30 AM – 6:00 PM; Saturday: 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM; Sunday: 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM for Boarding Pick-up

The south end of the ring, an hour down 55 from Jackson. No livestock, no farm calls and no after-hours cover stated anywhere on the site — so this lane and no other. Note the short Wednesday.
Monday: 7:30 am - 5:30 pm; Tuesday: 7:30 am - 5:30 pm; Wednesday: 7:30 am - 12:30 pm; Thursday: 7:30 am - 5:30 pm; Friday: 7:30 am - 5:30 pm; Saturday: 7:30 am - 12:00 pm; Sunday: Closed

Opens at half past six four days a week, which is the earliest door in this ring — useful if you work and your dog does not. No livestock claim, no farm-call claim, no overnight claim on the site.
Monday-Thursday: 6:30am - 6:30pm; Friday: 6:30am - 6:00pm; Saturday: 8:00am - 5:00pm; Sunday: 3:30pm - 5:30pm

Out on Lakeland, about a mile and a half from the overnight ER at the top of this page — worth knowing which is which before you need either. Nothing on the site about livestock, farm calls or after-hours.

East of Jackson on 20, in the same county seat country as the Newton clinic. They publish one thing most practices leave off, and it matters: the doctor is gone Thursday afternoons. No livestock or farm-call claim on the site.

West end of the ring, up on the river. The Saturday is every other Saturday and they say so plainly, which is the sort of detail a status light would round off and get you on the wrong day. No livestock or farm-call claim on the site.

How this page was made
Checked 9 August 2026 · 12 practicesTheir site or nothing
Every name, number, address, hour and overnight claim on this page was read off the practice's own website on 9 August 2026. No Yelp, no map cards, no directory scrapes. Where a practice does not publish a thing — McCrory keeps no street address and no hours, being a truck — the line says so instead of filling in.
Lanes are claims, not guesses
A practice is in the large-animal, goat or farm-call lane because its own site says it treats those animals or drives out. The Vicksburg clinic runs an equine page and a bovine page but never says it comes to you, so it is not in the farm-call lane. That is the whole method, and it is why the chicken lane came back empty.
No status lights, no stars
Hours are quoted, never rendered as “open now” — URGIVET is shut at noon on a Tuesday and a green dot would never tell you. No ratings, no reviews, no sponsored placements, no affiliate links. Order is by lane and species, then alphabetical.
