3 times in 5 days, just a few miles away last night, sheep gathered and penned in fields, lambs selected, throats cut, hung up and butchered, skins and guts left. Over a dozen each time!
Clearly experienced/ professional gangs selling to order and I'd surmise asian/ halal market.
Police need to get their act together and fast,
Truly horrific for the animals and farmers involved.
I can't post the links because I have no patience but it's on my Facebook if you know me or can find me.
Worrying times indeed.

It looks like the same gang - they take a gate off it's crooks, stand it up against the fence and use it to hang 'em up to skin 'em.

Another 6 gone in N.Lincs last night - taken alive:mad:

They used the pens that were in the field last night to corale them and dragged them to a tree to hang them up, although in the picture from the lot between crick and west haddon there was a hurdle stood up against the hedge, must be a different gang to the one in lincs obviously but might all be going to/ through the same outlets?

The field butchers have been spotted near by:

So last night pretty average night , went to the craswall BBQ had a great time and went to the pub as you do on a Saturday night. About 10:30 I left the pub and headed for home . On the right side of the lane as your approaching the farm there is a large 20 acre field that has just had hay made in it . Below that there is a smaller field that has got the ewe lambs in it. As I was driving down the road about to turn over the cattle grid to head down to the farm I notice two lights in the 20 acre hay field . I think “that’s weird why are there lights in mums field”? . So I turn my lights down and drive into the field . ( the gate was wide open) I saw a “Green Subaru Forester “ Parked in the middle of the field. My first thought was that it was Sebastian ( a lovely but completely crazy gentleman who drives around and parks in fields to get inspiration for his writing of poems ) but this wasn’t Sebastian’s car. As soon as I got out of the truck Diesel started growling like holy hell . I then spoke into the dark . “Hello is anyone there?” After I spoke a small collie dog cam towards me . After this two large figures come out of the gloom. As they where standing fairly close to the side lights of my truck I couldn’t make them out a lot except that they where both white , heavy set men wearing overalls and wellies. When they spoke they must have bin in there thirty’s . I promptly asked they what the hell they where doing in my field ? But to no answer I then told them to leave of the property and go away . I was feeling very threatened and vulnerable as these guys where clearly very powerful together. ( f**k was I lucky to have had Diesel last night) After some argument I finally got them to leave I escorted them out as they where driving in front of me I noticed several things hanging up in the back of there boot by the back window but couldn’t make out what they where.

This is a warning ⚠️ these guys where about to head down to the field and butcher the ewe lambs in my opinion. Why else would they be in over all’s and wellies with a dog . And not certain but I think the things hanging up in the back boot where most likely tools to kill the sheep .

This is a plea to all my fellow farmers local to the Hereford areas and beyond . Please lock your gates that have stock in them , keep your windows open for sounds of distressed sheep , check your far fields regularly and keep an eye out for two large males in their 30s driving a Green Subaru Forester. ( there number plates had bin covered)

I was lucky last night as I believe I saved the ewe lambs lives and saved us and the local farmers some heart break . But they are near by now . Please keep your eyes open and if you see anything suspicious then you need to act .

Thanks I hope this goes out over face book so please SHARE THE sh!t OUT OF THIS POST !!!! let’s catch these monsters and help out the other farmers now!!

20 butchered in Rugby Warwickshire last night, thats nearly 100 stock and the fourth time hes been hit,
the countryside has become the wild west, where we are being left to fend for ourselves im afraid.

The gates where removed and tied vertically the same to butcher the sheep, same gang the cuts were done professionally as if by your local butcher.
