Rodney is chilling out!

I just hope Rodney will be able to do the trick and that we shall have our first lambs at Easter. Fingers Crossed!!

So far he has been very well behaved now Dai!, that is another ewe completely. This month she has crushed my foot, nearly broken my leg and head butted me up the bottom and it's only the 4th!  :love: And I still think she is a lovely girl.

I'm afraid the ripped ear due to tagging incident just makes her look even more like an escaped criminal.
