While I Was Away,

I keep 4 sheep - just to keep the grass down in the field so that it doesn't go sour for the horses :thumbsup:

They are shetland ewes and 2 of them are tame :thumbsup:

I couldn't believe my eyes this morning - I walked down to check them out and there were 2 LAMBS!!!!!! (w00t) (w00t) (w00t)

Turns out that my neighbours manx ram had helped himself and returned to his own field without us knowing ..... I did catch him clambering through the hedge and jumping the fence once but I managed to stop him getting to my girls and I thought that was the only time he'd come into my field :- "

Just shows how wrong you can be :lol: :lol: :lol: :thumbsup:

Here are the new additions ............. they need names - any suggestions?? :thumbsup:

Little boy

Little girl

Unfortunately I don't have enough grass for 6 sheep (and there's a possibility one or both of the other ewes may be in lamb too (w00t) )

So if anyone wants a lamb please PM me!!!! Free of charge so that I don't contravene the K9 selling rules :thumbsup:

PS No mint sauce jokes please (w00t)

Yes - should do :thumbsup:

The manx sheep (dad) is a rare breed and they tend to be a sort of brown colour. The shetland sheep (mum) can come in various different colours - mine are grey kalmogets :blink: or something like that :lol:

 

[jinnyfizz]

The first twins are now christened .........

Bow - who is doing very nicely and always at the milk bar

Peep - who tends to get lost and can't work out which is her mum - awwwwww :wub:
