I’ve had the exact same I’d put it down to the massive flush of grass and the lambs couldn’t cope with it haven’t lost any but I just can’t get them over that line. You know when lay just need that little extra. draw from 2 bunches of lambs alternating every week to give them a fortnight to alter. My normal problem is having to many ready for just one load but not enough for 2 this year I’m struggling to fill one deck

Every 4th word is a curse, he’s already called the baby a “dirty bitch” for filling her nappy. Everything they say is a full volume.
