Most, but not all, the ewes and lambs are now out in the field enjoying the spring weather. They devoured the young grass on the front lawn in no time at all.
Today we have brought up the second group of ewes ( another 50) to settle for lambing. They are in the paddock next to the lambing yard. The yard has been mucked out and pressure hosed down and is now ready for when they start.
We still have nine ewes with their lambs in the barn waiting for the youngest lamb to be 3 weeks
old. We can then give them their routine vaccine before they join the remainder of the flock.
We now play the waiting game again.
