Time to check on the ewes and lambs we've turned out. The weather isn't great but they're all looking good.

Day 11 in the Big Sheep Shed..... and a grand total of 4 ewes have lambed so far. This pair made their entrance in the early hours and Dan thought it might trigger the rest and we'd have a busy day. Nope, we spent the day doing jobs around the yard, popping in hopefully every couple of hours, only to be disappointed each time.

When you want to bake but remember that your lovely (gift from mum) metric scales are in the barn to measure lamb milk powder because they go up to 5kg 🫣 Granny's imperial balance scales save the day!

Still topping them up with a bottle, but they are full of life and mum's doing much better, hopefully they can go out to the field soon 😍

Jess's ewe lambed this morning, 2 gorgeous little lambs. Unfortunately, due to her having been a bit poorly with the pregnancy, she hasn't got much milk so we've had to top the lambs up. They are both under her trying to feed, so fingers crossed with all the tlc and extra feed she's getting, she'll come into her milk and be able to rear them herself.

Here's what we've all been waiting for, we've started! And what a gorgeous little gimmer lamb to kick it all off 😍
