Well Christmas has been and gone it has been really wet and muddy so we haven't much in the way of grass. Ten of my little ewe lambs have gone to their new home and I wish their new owners every success with them . Because my ram went in with the ewes a lot earlier this year I decided to have them scanned to give me an idea when they will start to lamb,so last Monday Alan came with his machine and everything went very smoothly and all twenty eight ewes are in lamb even the two girls that didn't lamb last year,so very pleased with the result Anton has been a very busy chap,can't wait to see his offspring. We have kept one of the ram lambs a rather nice polled moorit gulmoget he has a lovely nature and nice fleece we will have to see how he grows on, we might show him this year. We have kept six little females two black gulmogets two real blacks and two black/dark brown hopefully two of these will join the ram lamb for this seasons showing. Watch this space for lambing news in March Carole   |
