Title: lambing live - brilliant yet again!
Post by: fiestyredhead331 on March 31, 2014, 08:23:36 am

I really wish they would do a longer series.
was also good to see the bigger picture, going from start to finish ending at the abattoir.  The amount of people who think the lamb you buy in the supermarket is those cute little lambs that frolic in the spring sun amongst the daffodils amazes me and they ain't so cute by the time they reach slaughter weight!
they could probably do a year round programme showing all the other work that has to be done, clipping, dipping and dosing etc, we dont just ignore them all year until lambing time.
