Our first lambs are coming home tomorrow
we took them to slaughter yesterday and are picking them up tomorrow morning. Last years lambs were a lot later to finish in the year so we missed bbq season, so bbq lamb is on the menu for tomorrow. Will be really interesting to see how they compare to last years, they were pretty big lambs so hopefully be a good deadweight, but not too fat.
We've got 5 more left to go in 3 or 4 weeks... and are off to look at a few store lambs this eve that are being sold privately, they are the right price and would finish I expect by October, so can help keep the grass down like the current lambs have been doing.
Anyone else saying goodbye to their lambs yet?
