It's that time of year when the rams get to have some fun/do some work. They have about 6 weeks when they are in with the girls, then the rest of the year is all about eating, sleeping and preparing themselves for the year ahead. A very tough life!
They have been next door to the ladies for a couple of weeks, pacing the fence and sweet talking whoever will listen.
I moved them into a new paddock and then let the girls in. The boys came running.
"Well helloooo ladies"
That's about as long as it took for introductions - I'm guessing you can work out the rest.
Lamb photos to follow - in about 5 months.
Yep, that sounds about right. Loved this, didn't know whether you'd show us that last shot but could see where you were heading, lol.
