I'm absolutely sick of these Suffolk X mules. We stick a texel over them. All lambs go fat off farm.
If I was to choose a breed to not have to continually bash my head against a wall and put so many dead lambs in the bin and knacker myself trying.
If they don't lick, pee off or lay on them when u eventually catch them when I bring them in, lambs have no get up and go as there not mothered. It's just heartbreaking lambing these things.
There just fat and bloody lazy the ewes.
Ground is very wet on clay, might rule out woolly belly types or leaner mule types possibly.
Where should I start?
