Feckin pain in the arse, I caught two one stoned lambs romping through a field of lambs an punted into market, two days later went to the same field and another two wee upstarts showed their self to be doing the same!! why do people ring a lamb with a stone left up??? Just don’t ring the fecking things full stop!!! Wànkers

Years ago some know it all appeared bought a house and a few fields off a farmer that packed in. Bought a few ewes tupped them lambed them all a bit of a performance anyway he appeared at the mart with these store lambs with horns ect even though they were Texels out of mules. Turned out he’d ringed them but only taken the sack off not the balls. An old fella said ooooohhhhh I bet they have some yak on!!

I like those sorts. You can usually buy all their fancy kit for feck all after a couple of years and be pretty much gifted the sheep “if you give them a good home”

I get loads that have obviously been late rung. Purse is still hanging there. Nowt too do with me, I don’t want too know. BUT why miss a ball when they’ve been rung late?! They are so easy too feel you really wonder! Just leave them as damn tups, far easier too spot the buggers with a pair instead of one with a slightly strong head and 1 ball tucked up the inside of his leg. I know there is an argument for “wethers are worth more” yes, they are. But don’t put bleddy rigs in with the big pen of wethers and sell them too the simpleton from Cheshire!!!

"Simpleton" "Expert lamb finisher"...........................owt else we should be calling you?????

There will be another round of that in about two years time, when all the arable farmer’s have discovered that their tractor drivers don’t make very good shepherds after all.

Am I the only person that it I can’t get 2 balls in the sack I don’t ring them at all and marker a massive T up it’s back so I can spot them easily at weaning time in the race and draft them off??

If we can’t find both balls we leave it and leave the full tail on too. Then when weaning “why has that got a tail?” Makes them much easier too find. Nothing worse than rig lambs.
