A few sheep photos
« on: February 18, 2015, 08:16:29 pm »
Seeing as I have just learned to upload photos, here are some of my ewe lambs. Apologies they aren't great and may be too big. I have owned them since September.

 :wave:Beautiful well grown ewes and very effective photos, can feel them getting nearer and nearer!!
They're obviously well looked after and know that they're on to a goood thing..will you be keeping them or selling them on? Best wishes whatever your plan is.

Thanks, thy mean so much to me  ;D
They are ewe lambs, tipped with my charollais tip. Having ng 18 singles, six twins, five are empty and one is a surprise (she kept escaping at scanning!)

Do they look forj healthy and well enough? Conscious I miss something, they all seem very happy. I'd love some purebreds but these cross ewe lambs are doing me just fab at the moment.

They look grand  :thumbsup:

When do they start lambing?

They look fabulous and although I like the one with Little Bo Peep, the first photo is my favourite !
