TweetShareWinter is upon us and over the last few days we have had hail, snow, rain strong winds and thunder, at least this year the ewes can come back from the fields and into a dry shed although the track is very muddy at least they can get out of the weather if they prefer. The ram lambs have a good shelter and the little ewe lambs were brought in this week.so all have dry beds. All the ponies are wearing rugs for the first time dear Jessie was not pleased with hers but she seems fine now ,Ash is happy with his rug and stands outside in the wet I do believe he is testing it and dear Petal the oldest girl is more than happy in hers but she did get used to hers last winter. Anton has been very busy with his ewes so hopefuly all his ewes are safely pregnant. Are dear friend Ann brought her four ewes to go to the ram this year and I believe all four have been served so hopefully Ann can look forward to her first lambs in the coming spring, watch this space. Anton has been a real gentleman with his ewes and is very good tempered we can walk around the field or shed without any worries with him we are very pleased with his behaviour and are really looking forward to his lambs. I have managed to make a few felted sculptures which have sold quite well .Picture inserted of the latest one But the best news of all is that my dear youngest son is now mobile and on the road to recovery after an awful accident at work back in October, he and his lovely little family have done so well and I only hope things will get better for them next year at least his adorable baby girl has given us plenty to smile about over the last two or three months. Thankyou for reading my blog and Happy Christmas and good New year to you all.   |
