Looking Ahead

My walk with Poppy yesterday incorporated walking out to check the ewes.


They are looking fit and ready to start on the next step in the farming calendar. 


On the 1st November the rams were put in the ewes and have been having a busy time since. 


They will stay with the ewes now until the end of March when we keep our fingers crossed for a good lambing season.

      The ewes are Suffolk cross and the rams are Charolais.

    Your 2nd photo is a calendar perfect shot or one for a painting. Like the black face of your sheep.

    Mary-Lou is right, the photo is gorgeous. I know how many chickens you have; how many sheep are there?
