My 6 lambs are off today :( will miss one of them a lot, Sox, he likes a head rub, he is like a big dog!! Shame he was already castrated or we would have kept him, ah well time to plan next years lot :sheep: :sheep: :sheep: :sheep: :sheep: :sheep:

Ours are off next Tuesday - we'll definitely miss them as we raised them as orphans and they're very 'chatty' first thing in the morning, but looking forward to the meat! :)

We've got a tiny ram called Sox - He was an unexpected second arrival from a small ewe, we keep him as a pet and he likes his head rubbed too. And his back, and his shoulders and his chin - big softie! :D

the best young lamb i had was blind i gave him to next door he looks fab the kids keep him on a rope and take him out

My lovely ram lamb loved a head rub. I would have kept him - he had really good conformation and a nice temperament - except that his front legs were wonky and we'd never be able to breed from him and he'd probably have pain as he got older and heavier.
-
I love my 'Ramie Lambie' too but he has to go - and he is getting a bit bolder whan I go in with him - now it's a medium dunt, progression from a gentle tap and I know my back won't handle stage three the all out running dunt. Hope everyone's lamb makes it all worth while.

Our two are booked in for the 15th November.
