It seems to be a bit doom and gloom around here at the moment, it has definitely been at home- I lost one of my lambs a few weeks ago, and we've lost 2 calves in as many weeks

But on Friday I turfed all of my lambs out into the big wide world that is the field, and thought I'd share these photos of them this morning- they seem really contented   All tame lambs... now the hard work is done, just got to heptavac again in a couple of weeks and bring in to worm/flystrike throughout the course of the spring and summer

The first pic is some of the slightly older lambs, the 2nd is all 17 of them together

Looking well, twizz!   

Sorry to hear about the calves  - what happened there?

[twizzel]

thanks

One had the most horrendous scour I've ever seen, we tried for 2 weeks to get her well but nothing worked so the hunt came for her (incidentally the day that my lamb snuffed it too- bad day!). The other was a heifer calving out in the field one evening last week, didn't get to it in time and it must have drowned during calving bloody great heifer calf too, typical

Hi,
Lovely pics, I have serious grass envy, ours is still yellow looking and short.
