Have you looked at those ‘dry hoggs’ at all this winter? Would a fully entire Welsh Mule tup not have bagged up noticeably some time ago?;)

You have no idea how many hoops that tup has jumped through too get as far in life as it has 🤦🏻‍♂️[emoji85] mortified is an understatement... it missed being balled and tailed, at weaning I personally checked over all my welsh mules too pick the ones I wanted too keep as replacements and turned them over and checked they didn’t have a dick and marked the ones too keep.... I then rechecked them mid august too make sure I was happy with the ones I was keeping, turned them over checked there feet and mouths killed a few that’s mouths didn’t quite sit right... the tip broke on with them at tupping so they were
All scanned in November and all empty... including my tup lamb 🤦🏻‍♂️[emoji24] the scanner was either laughing her pansy off or some how didn’t notice his massive ball sack when she reached under 🤦🏻‍♂️ I even dagged them all out in December and never noticed it’s balls...

At least he’s worth a good price now, assuming he hasn’t shagged himself to a hat rack.👍

I’d be over moon personally these BALLS up’s can often pan out nicely. He should give some nice easy lambs.

My pedigree coloured ryelands aren’t over the moon that they’re in lamb 🤦🏻‍♂️ but like you say should be a nice easy lambing tup and they’ll hopefully all lamb outside pretty sharpish otherwise I’ll struggle get them too tup in September for next year [emoji85][emoji85]

Bunch was 35 pulled 23 out that are bagged up so nothing world ending just not sure how they’ll turn around for the tup in September with the rest the ewes... another 2 this morning [emoji28] might lamb outdoors next year this is easy [emoji23][emoji23]
Put a hopper out with them with ad lib hogg nuts. Lambs will get onto them also and wean start July with everything in good fettle. Lamb crop should more than cover the cost.
