The lambs coming out of the north of Scotland are the best I’ve seen. Talking too an auctioneer at Dingwall and he was saying it’s amazing how well they do when they don’t spend the first 5 months of their lives soaked too the skin.You do realise that lambs are produced outside the South West too?
I haven't heard any particular horror stories from lambing time, as usually do the rounds pretty quickly. I would venture most found lambing, and the preceding winter, not fantastic, but also not disastrous. Anyone hold a differing view?
I hear lots of stories from farmers round here about how the lambs have done better this summer, as they always do in a dry time, when grass is tighter/shorter. Those in the grim North haven't had such a dismal, wet time of it as usual either.
