No defo been nicked, secure fenced all way round, right by a house that count them everyday!! Looked everywhere, an yes tyre tracks at the gate!! Wouldn’t mind if id culled them myself or something like but for somebody else to help them self an cut there throat in some back ally is a horrendous thought!! But what can be done?? It’s happening everywhere

Where are you?
West Mids, a neighbour half a mile over went to his stock one morning an half v flock were locked in the sorting pens! The chain on the gate had been cut, tyre tracks up to the pen an ewes an lambs drafted separate ways, by the time he’d had a count up reckons he’d lost 18 lambs an twenty ewes!! That’s no back ally job, that’s somebody with the know how an ability to gather them in, probably trained to a bag I know but your average joe off the street couldn’t do it

We're all on red alert round here again - neighbours had some suspicious vehicle in their lane end last night and another chap has just rung me to say there's been some heads/skins/offal found not too far away. Mind you, they'll need either a boat or a hovercraft tonight 'cos it's pelted it down all day today.

Going on everywhere, friend a few miles away lives by motorway an he is always losing stock, pull up on hard shoulder an help themselves, police pulled over a car with four live ewes in the back!! Another time trading standards rang him an said they found sheep with his ear tags in twenty miles away in a town park, when he said he’d come an fetch them they said don’t bother it’s just their heads!!

joys of muli culture? thing is if you did it in their country, justice would be swift and brutel ? here when caught they get free bed and breakfast and fish and chips for evening meal ?
Isn’t that why the country is full of thieves murderers an rapists, no deterrent, they ought to bring back hanging, instead of costing the working man money keeping v barstewards we’d be lessening the problem!!!

Farmer I know had 200 odd lambs stolen a few years ago :mad:
When they steal big numbers like that it’s a totally different bunch of people, must be somebody in the industry who has the means to hide or sell such numbers!! Gos on in all counties bet we’d know them when it comes out??

No no I wouldn’t discriminate, hang the lot black white pink purple whatever nationality, save the country millions!! An the police are a joke, one pc covers three counties round here, waste of time ringing them if your being robbed, had a ewe on the road while back an three squad cars turned up!! Station must of been to hot or the cars needed a spin
