Title: Twins!!
Post by: Roxy on April 17, 2010, 11:29:15 pm

Found the big Shropshire ewe on her back this morning.  She was so big, we thought she was carrying quads.  Anyway, got her on her feet.  Checked her this afternoon, and she had lambed.  Both on their feet, and doing ok.  Not quite sure what breed they are though .....rogue tup from a neighbour escaped and made his way to the field.  Lovely weather here today  for lambs, and quite warm tonight too.  Last night was a bad frost.
