Title: Ram wrestling
Post by: Pedwardine on November 20, 2013, 10:56:11 pm
Had to pin down my ram today when he got tired of his small troupe of ladies not being 'in the mood' and effortlessly cleared his electric netting to chance his luck with the ewe lambs at the other end of the field. Caught him at the arse sniffing stage thank goodness! Tried laying across him to start, he kicked me alot then almost got away but for a leg. Wrestled him down again and tried a lengthways weighting down. Much better. It was a lovely intimate moment for the both of us whilst OH got the lambs safely away.............Feeling the burn this evening. He's a strapping lad.

Wow welldone on being able to pin him down!!

My shetland ram is too big and strong for me to pin down, he must be pushing 70 kilo, due to his bad temper I will not be keeping any ram lambs from him at all!

Unless all shetland rams have a temper...
