Well on wednesday night i was at the local sheep sales and brought the cattle trailer this time as i got my flock number! So i decided to get a ewe and 2 lambs at foot. I seen a great outfit a 2yr and 2 lambs so for the first time i was in the bid! I won the auction at £145 i was pleased with this as i didnt think i would get anything as young as that for the price i paid!
We got them into the trailer and got them to the field at the house where they are now... and such a session to get them down the driveway IN THE DARK! So i had a pen made out of electric wire and the ewe jumped it so wasn't happy with that so decided to give them the full run of the field.
They have now just started to settle down now and are great and the goat loves them too!

Congratulations Connor on the start of your own

flock

. And for taking the plunge and bidding at auction. Do you know if your lambs are rams or ewes? And what breed are they? I know you were looking at different types a while ago.
Good luck with them - you will always remember the first ones
