Check ‘her’ rear end . Even very experienced farmers get one wrong now and again
Otherwise, quite possibly she’s not 100% pure bred.

Lovely Heidi is now a lovely Henry!
A friendly boy, and although not what I thought I was buying, he's the most affectionate and sits down like an idiot when I fuss him, so I'm smitten
Just need to feed them all up now! Anyone got tips for helping emaciated stock build muscle? I get a couple come to be hand fed, but they'd never seen a bucket before, and it took at least two weeks to get them to even eat creep (wouldn't touch anything else)... They still aren't massively bothered, no matter what I feed (a sheep mix, crushed grain, grass pellets and creep), but do like their hay. They go out and eat grass happily enough through the day, and we have plenty.
They'd been wormed at the beginning of October, and I'll be worming them with another wormer on Wednesday, along with some conditioning drench. None are scouring at all, which I'm very pleased about! But I did buy a few sorry little wrecklings, and I'm struggling to build them up. All of my pets are sturdy, so I'm not used to trying to put weight on.
