Same as buying 2 or 3 crop ewes, you're only buying someone else's problems, if buying sheep now I would buy draft ewes again, at least they've got to that age because they have produced every year with no problems and have probably only lost some teeth. Buy from hard mountain flock to put on...

No, she definitely has tags in, it's such a neat job you just can't see them. ( If you look real squinty there's a pink tag in her ear).

I breed my own mules, this ewe lamb should be good to enter the breeding flock in 18 months.

😄well spotted.... replacement tags are in the post😬

More swallows arriving every day along with large numbers of geese, jackdaws, starlings and herring gulls! Interesting to know what they're finding to eat in my bare pp.

Lleyn tup on a mule, one of my older girls.

Turned all my remaining ewes and lambs out last Monday including one ewe that was slightly bagged up... thinking maybe she'd slipped her lamb without me noticing. Checking sheeps this evening and she had a lamb! Double bonus, live lamb and no dead sheep. Hope it warms up soon as the sheep are...

Synulox every other day, three jabs...cleared the joint ill I had in a lamb. Gave metacam too.

It's dried out enough here for me to be able to save my legs and drive around the fields, still have to skirt the boggy bits though, my head would explode if I got stuck somewhere. With that in mind I fired up the old zetor for the first time since last year, as back up, greased it and slung the...

Just following vets instructions, Synulox every other day. At least 3 inj.

Just got Synulox (1ml/20kg every two days) and metacam (1ml/ day) from vet.

I too was into my bikes in a former life, my last one was a Yamaha FJ 1200, had to call it a day when the points accumulated on my driving licence got the better of me racing cars and other motorbikes. It was in those days when I thought I was invincible and indestructible (and looking back an...

There was a solitary swallow swooping around my big field. S.Wales. Maybe the predicted high pressure will bring more in?

Groundsman at golf club has me on speed dial, sheep do like grazing on the fairways if they can get to them, not had an escape so far this year but I know it's only a temporary respite.

Welsh ewe, on my quality boundary to the golf course....where she was heading, the fairways do look lush to be fair. Time to move fields methinks. Dagging and worming first.

I'll be dragging all my ewes soon in anticipation of the coming muggy heatwave.😬

Luckily she saw me and started shouting otherwise she would have ended up as an entry in the "500 ways a sheep can die" book. Jambed in the hazel bush with her head through the fence. They're idiots.🙄

Just sold 8 runts from last year's lambs, £80 each apart from a really small Welsh £15. Left out over winter at zero cost (except ear tag).

They're doing us a great service, improving the world😃

Would that be commercial forest or native forest. Which one would you like to see in your local area?
