Twin lambs born last night to Feta. I guess you can call this badger-faced? We don't have any like this in our closed flock. I can't wait to see what color these fleeces are going to be! This year is definitely the year for recessive genes or something! #lambing #lambsofmastodon
It's good to have a friend to hoof snuggle with. 🥰 #lambspam #lambing #lambsofmastodon

I took this photo four years ago. In two weeks, the lambing season starts all over again. A month or more where I get little sleep and worry about every little sneeze, wheeze, and cold breeze. #lamb #sheep #farming #farmlife #lambing #lambingseason

Yesterday’s weather was utter crap!
Hoping for a better day today. Looks promising so far 🤞

I wish she’d hurry up and get that lamb out. Been 7 days since she came in. Fortunately got a camera in there so don’t have to physically get up and check through the night. #lambing #Defaidodon
My latest article here on #Northwestnatureandhistory on #Wordpress talks about some of the tasks the upland farmer has to do on the farm in spring #farming, #Lancashire, #lambing, #uplands, #pennines, #calving, #spring

Monty also went STRAIGHT to his bucket this morning. I'm shutting them into a small paddock at night because they had been escaping. Now as soon as I open the gate they make a beeline straight for the #crystalyx bucket! Good though as the girls are 8 weeks out from #lambing so it'll keep their energy up.

Hadn't really realised just how much COVID had taken it out of me. Back to full production now!
Managed to get up onto barn roof today and do some gutter clearance as it was running into the lambing area. Also discovered where the rain tank is leaking so hopefully (I'm NO plumber) can get that fixed and have rain water system for the barn.
