Unfortunately going to give it a miss I think. Falling behind with speaning hill lambs and meant to be going away for a couple of days with the inlaws next week so going to batter on with that. Will pop down for a beer later on if you're still about!

I used to do the same thing. Now it's been flipped and he has his own wee "retirement flock" and I'm left to pay for it. Not nearly as much fun 🤣

New trailer as well? Very shiny!

Got a good start to buying hill tups this morning... 🙄

Is there 400m of polywire in there too? 🤦

Enjoying the sun for a change 👌

Italian?

That's not nearly as bleak as Muirkirk 🤣

I'd say you could do a lot worse. A very strong commercial influence on all of his stock 👌

Shetland tups had crossed my mind but just don't think I could bring myself to do it 🤣

Spoke to a mate today who said the same about the beltex. Cheviot saves having to go out and buy tups for the job too 👌 They are mostly Cheviot mules with some suffolk cross chucked in there too

They'd be lambing out

Thanks for the help chaps. Have plenty teasers kicking about the place and have the chance of some fairly good winter grazing hence I'm thinking about tupping them as lambs. The next question is what to tup them with.. not all that keen to go down the beltex/charolais route. Southie Cheviot?

Going to tup some ewe lambs for the first time this year... Before I start planning grazing how good do I need to be to them? Tups probably going out to them mid November
