First lamb of 2006!


Sorry about the quality - I took it on my phone in a dark barn

First Lamb First Lamb

The first lamb. A pure-bred Dartmoor lamb.
Born on Sunday to one of our best young ewes. Mother and Lamb are doing well :@)

You may not need to send him hay!

I don't know if you saw the post where I mentioned sheep showering? Well Lewis went through the sheep shower along with all the other male lambs (tups) who are older thn him. They all got a thorough soaking which sufficed to wash all their smell off them and make them all pretty miserable. When we turned them back out into the field they were more concerned about finding food, drying out and keeping warm than fighting each other.

Lewis seems to have settled down very well and I check on him and his mates at least twice a day. He's certainly holding his own and has even been seen initiating some hot ram-on-ram action! You've befriended a gay sheep!

Well they certianly start young don't they, I blame the rural North Walian life meself....!!

Glad Lewis is doing well :-D

What bribes do I have to offer for a piccie of Lewis??? (preferably not doing the gay thing!)
