I was actually gob smacked that the advert has been allowed to be made and shown on national TV. It was horrendous militant vegan inspired hate. It wound me up so much I've actually complained to the ASA about it.

It's gone through this batch of lambs like a hot curry and ten pints of cheap larger on a Friday night. Hoping that the ewes don't get it on their tits. We never had off until we had that drought 2 yrs back and they went foraging all through the hedge rows for something to eat. Is there anything...

Dog walker this morning comes over the stile with a loose dog into a field with 3 escapees in it. He walks up the field with the dog loose and throws a Frisbee for it startling the 3 wild sheep into a corner of the field. I shouted to get the dog on the lead and stomped all the way up the field...

Anyone else seen this saga? A stupid sheep got herself stuck somewhere by a river, but not in anywhere where she was likely to drown - any more than any normal stupid sheep at least. Some kayakers video it and it ends up at Cammys door. He finds out all about it and that it's basically fine bar...

I'm no big time seller, maybe stick 30 lambs through the auction each year, sometimes more sometimes less depending on what the meat boxes are doing. I took some hoggs a few weeks back and the price was a little bit back on what I thought I'd draw but I was pleased enough - they were rubbish...

We're building a stable block. Banking on an old but supposedly existing drain to run the gutter water away. I found what I expected to be the outlet a couple of weeks back and it was running so perfect I thought. Then last weekend digging out for some water pipe I came across an 8 inch...

It's stroker season again and I'm losing my temper rapidly with morons wombling around my ground with loose dogs etc and this morning I came to feed my magpie to find some barsteward had liberated him! Hoping he's got used to venison and lamb fat and he's got Stockholm syndrome and he'll be back...

5 minutes of idle thinking time had me wondering if there's any rhyme or reason as to why lambs present badly? I'm sure the answer is they're just bloody sheep. But I'm just curious if there's any actual/scientific reason or cause for legs back etc.

I know I'm getting my religious festivals mixed up and this time of year is the birth of Jesus not the second coming - that's Easter. Due to lamb the first week in Feb. Scanned the ewes last weekend. 2 were too far along to scan. rubbish says I they were synchronised so I know to within a few...

Like it says on the tin really. Just bought a new tup and need to chuck him in with the other tup but rather they didn't kill each other! And with the heat as well id rather they didnt fight like f**k. I can keep them on opposite paddocks probably but I'd be easier for them to live together!

I don't normally mind the Yorkshire Vet if it's on when I'm in. Last nights was on as I was leaving to go to work and the wife shouted me to come and look at this abomination. She's a bit soft and fluffy and heart and a big proponent of let it live it might die but even she said it should have...

Bloody dog walkers! They use our top field as a dog walking field which in normal times winds me up but apparently they're thick as 2 short planks and stick to the footpath sounds very much like walk round my field and let your dogs loose so they can crap everywhere. This afternoon I caught some...

I've got 2 tup lambs that are off their legs this morning. They're reluctant to stand then when you get then up they almost stagger backwards and they're flagging their tails then they'll either walk off or lie back down. They're bright enough in themselves but obviously not right. They're 2 big...

We're lambing, just 40 so not huge numbers. Had a ewe yesterday push her water bag out in the field. Followed her up the yard into the shed and left her to lamb in the dry. Not much had happened, had a feel after a couple of hours and she was open a bit but not fully and after 5 or 6 hours she'd...

Hi all, I've got the chance at a load of pumpkins for stock feed. They're fine by all accounts just sat out in the field waiting to decompose or be chopped up by the plough. Just wondered if they had much/any nutritional value for pregnant ewes? They're the right price at £0's and there's plenty...

Hi everyone, we're currently non MV although I'm looking into going MV before we get many more sheep about. However I reared a load of cade lambs this time including some very fancy bred charollais ewe lambs from an MV accredited breeder. 2 of them are very nice to the point I'd like to try and...
