Sorry to here about your ewe, It's a pain when you loose one. We managed to stop a bad mastitis forming hopefully this evening, the ewe was away down the field and looking rough so we caught her up and sure enough she had a mastitis forming in one quarter. a dose of antibiotics for her and we will have to keep an eye on her.
Would be good if you can find a ewe to foster your boy onto, i always think they do so much better on a ewe. they learn how to be a sheep proper, rather than a pet.
Yeah, it would be nice but my three orphans from last year are just fine in with the rest of my flock and are well behaved.
Hi The Captain 
Well done with your lambing 
-shame you lost a ewe but sometimes these things happen 
How many lambs - % did you get from the Portland ewes? .
Tilly
Thanks for your wishes - I did very little TBH, the girls just seem to pop them out. Portlands are all about the singles and we'll have 100% once the last one goes, which is up one from last year as we had one which we thought was barren.
Looking in the shed tonight was awesome, a sea of lambs!
