... or for those of you non-sheepie people, this is when Pete gets to have sex with the ewes to make us more baby lambs!
That's Pete in the middle there, on the left is Brown Ewe and Greedy Ewe, and on the right Black Ewe and Curly Ewe. You may note that Shy Ewe and White Ewe are not in the photo -- that's because they didn't get with the programme and become my friends and are therefore going in the freezer this winter instead of getting pregnant. We had to enlist a neighbour's help (and his dog) to get the ewes in so we could separate those two out -- and we don't want to have to keep doing that. These four ewes, Pete, and the lambs will all come and eat out of my hand making handling them that much easier, so we are now breeding for friendliness!
Watch this space in five months time for more lamb cuteness!
