shes in the photo, she the larger of the two foals, shes the one standing side on in the second last photo,
shes doing really really well, the pair of them are growing so fast. wee nik is a wee toe rag, hes a nightmare to get feeding, poor wee sole was with his mum for the first week so hes not really happy about taking the bottle, its been 4 days and hes still acting up, bless him.

2 ram lambs

2 Ewe lambs

the lambs are the ones with the heavy coats, I didnt take any photos of the shearlings, just the lambs and supreme..
just in case anyone is wondering why there are 5 lambs in the photo and we are only taking 4....number 5 is a back up incase something goes wrong with one of the others lol.

Shona! You show and groom sheep n'all? I don't believe it!

It was roasting today too, and you were being Calamity Jane trying to catch sheep and wash them!

Great pictures, enjoyed looking at them. Lovely animals.

Good luck with the show! The Hour programme on STV at 5pm weekdays is going to be reporting from the RHS, we might see you and your sheep on it!
