I have spent most of the day cooking for visitors tonight. The girls have been working with the ewes and rams. The 1st Nov. is the day that the rams are put back in with the ewes. They will stay with them now until lambing time.
We lamb at the end of March/ beginning of April. This is fairly late but fits in well with the rest of the farm. I have been asked several times how do you get your ewes to lamb so late?..... I don't really want to give a full birds and the bees answer so I just say it depends when you put the rams in and leave the rest to their imagination!
love the expression on their faces - is it 'I'm too cool to rush in' or 'what are those things in the field'?
