filled up abit more, more play mates:D
Looks nice in there. I decided to have a look at our outside lambing field after 11pm as it is a terrible night. Usually leave them alone but caught 2 with a head sticking out, one with 2 dead never having got up in the sleet and brought another 2 pairs into the warming box. Now wide awake at 3am had tea and toast. Thankfully next few days looking much better. Was tempted to squeeze them in a shed but already too many pens there.

I feel for those lambing outside in the bad weather, been there, done that . Got the T-shirt as they say. A bit more expense lambing inside but with what save more than makes up for it. You still get loses but to the same degree.
Quick brew then round again.
Good luck (y)
