This is only my first summer with my small Soay flock and I already had 3 animals struck in the last 2 weeks (2 very young lambs and a just lambed ewe). I think I caught them all soon enough, they have all been cleaned up and seem to be recovering well, but I know the summer has only just started...
They all seem to be shedding to a different schedule, the males lost all their fleece weeks ago, the two shearling ewes are getting there, while the 3 older ones have quite started yet...
