Wellies your a braver person than me - I help out my near farm for experience but I don't know how I would cope with that - then I guess your looking for the ones you can save not for the dead so all hands on deck - good on you

The thing is when you save a ewe if in lamb it will blow up when the lamb dies farmers reporting saving ewes only to find them the next day dead .Scotland is not as bad as the north east aran Ireland etc .Its as bad as foot and mouth no young lambs in the fields when spring comes .The food is a concers as stock is running out and forcasts still look bad minus 10 this morning .Last up date sunday More of the same on Easter Monday as high pressure remains to the north, keeping the UK under a cold easterly air stream. Overnight temperatures will fall readily where skies clear, with -5C (27F) or even lower possible in places, leading to further moderate or even severe frosts for the time of year. The unseasonal weather looks set to continue in early April, and there is the risk of strengthening winds and another pool of cold air bringing an increased risk of snow showers to northern and eastern regions through the second half of the week. Temperatures could finally start recovering through the second week of April. will be keeping an eye on the prospects in the coming days
