19th November
Today we have added two more ewes to our flock. They are Texel crosses and very sweet. They seem friendlier than the other ewes and we were told that it’s because they were often ‘tempted’ by sheep grains bought from the farm shop. James rushed straight out to our local farm shop to get some because he is anxious that come worming/shearing/ feet attention time, he should be able to entice them to him easily. Gilbert the ram seemed perfectly happy to accept another two ladies into his harem and we left them happily munching on the windfall apples under the tree with Gilbert paying special attention to their hind quarters!
