Not the worst surprise I've ever had with sheep 😁

Grass is growing but so are the w**ds... It's an ongoing battle but the w**d wiper is a great tool for the job!

Feeling the heat 😁
This was us on Monday in the peak of the heatwave but it's great to have the hoggets clipped!

Nice feature in this week’s Anglo Celt on the Sheep School farm, outdoor lambing and the Sheep Guardian project 🐑

Mad to think some of these ideas started out in the shed and are now at the stage of live trials in the coming weeks.

Appreciate all the support from everybody following the journey 👍

Another outdoor lambing period has successfully concluded at the Sheep School farm just outside Ballinagh, meanwhile David Beattie aims to trial their new SheepGaurdian collar project in coming weeks.

This is exactly why we built it.

They were stuck holding ewes for 10 minutes at a time just to let lambs feed… tried tying them, tried penning them — nothing worked.
Now the ewe stands quiet, lamb feeds safely, and they can get on with the rest of the jobs.

Brilliant to see it working so well in a completely different setup and with a different breed 👌
