Title: Yellow Paste Works!!
Post by: Brucklay on November 01, 2012, 06:37:59 pm

Due to field logistics I put the castlemilk ram in with his girls a couple of weeks ago - as I have a few more to lamb next spring (hopefully) I thought I would gunk him up so I knew what was going on. Couple of days later 1 yellow bum - then nothing, I was slightly disappointed but thought maybe it had dried out and needed re done.

I check them every morning then this morning suddenly 8 yellow bums - he certainly was a busy boy yesterday evening to this morning - I guess I'm going to have a busy spell next spring!!

In my local mart, when selling tups, some sellers will tell the auctioneer, who then announces it:

'this tup likes his work'

Makes me laugh every time  :D
