    Llyen x smaller but nice shaped. That's 1 of last years lambs to the left.much nicer sheep than the Dorsets. Much calmer and easier to work with.

    That's the idea of having the beltex over the ewes. It keeps the lamb size down a little and they fetch a bit better price from the butcher. I will eventually go get around to keeping the llyen cross. High lambing percentages then. Texel x mule they are big exceptionally long ewes

    I got 6 Dorsetshire which are 5 year old and are going this year as I am changing over breeds. I've got 2 texel x llyens yearlings 2 texel x white face Welsh mules which are yearlings too, and 3 of last years ewes lambs out of them which are 3/4 texel 1/4 white face mule. I am going to stay down the texal cross route and use the same breed of tups each year. I only had the Dorsets last year and brought the others in a month or so before tupping I am lucky with the tups as there's a farmer just down the road who breeds some top glass sheep and he hired me the tups.

    I am going to start lambing end of February. Just hope i haven't slipped up and the weather is bad has I lamb outdoors. I've gone for pure beltex and a charollais x beltex tups this time around. Hopefully have a nice easy lambing.

    Nice to see the dogs out working for you. Like I said on the thread when the leg got broken I had a lab x with both the front and back leg pinned and she led a full and healthy working life.

    If its your first dog then I think you have gone down the wrong route to start with. As cute has beddy whippets may look they can get a very stubborn streak from the beddy and be a little hard headed at times. Have you thought about going to a few local puppy training classes? They are cheap enough and everybody there is in the same boat, all got a unruly dog of some description.

    I've never seen that before mate, it's a good idea. I got 3 pieces of tin sheeting and 4 8ft posts and 2 hurdles and put a temp pen up with some lorry sheeting on for the roof to put mine in for 24hours, ring them, put stockholme tar on them because I've got 2 active pig earths bordering the ground, then let them go. I may try some bags myself next year it would be easier.

    I think goats take a bit of keeping in, also the bloody things will eat hedge rows like they are going out of fashion.

    Sorry to hear that mate. The worst part about me owning dogs is the misses moaning when I make her pick the shit up??

    How come you have got plastic jackets on the lambs mate?

    As long has you can except there’s no money in a few sheep and that it’s a nice hobby then I would get some and enjoy them. Depending on quality of pasture I think it’s between 2 and 5 ewes per acre so 2 will be plenty under stocked on your 2 or so acres. I’ve just taken on just over 2 acres of land with a small pond on myself. I took the ground on in February this year brought 6 inlamb ewes scanned with 5 singles and a twin. 1 ewe has aborted I’ve got 2 left to lamb but got 4 healthy lambs so far out of the others. Basically as far as I am concerned it’s a nice hobby and hopefully gets my you

    10 years gone by allready it's Nutts. I remember the trip down to choose him and remember where he caught his first rabbit like it was just yesterday.

    Yes, too steep to get a machine on.
  23. trigger2
    Yeah, got a few in lamb ewes. A hobby for me and the kids, nice little pond on there as well. No doubt my boy will be around that when the frog spawn and tadpoles are about.
