St. Columba old grave yard near one of our fields.

There is an old ancient grave site near one of our fields where we have put the hoggs for winter. They say that crusaders have been buried here.
Here is a few links to web pages i found..

Lambing season.

Lambing Season is nearly over just a few more lambs to be delivered and that will be us finished :)
We have 22 lambs so far all fit an healthy and a good size. Sadly we lost two cause of the horrible crows getting to them first.

We have been lucky this year as all the mums even the first time mums have all taken to their lambs and not deserted them.

Lambs will be going for sale in a few months but some of the females we will be keeping for our own. All males will be going for sale.

Here is a picture of one of our lambs and his mum. As you can see his ears are floopy. This is just cause of the way he  was lying when he was born. He is my favourite out of all the lambs, always causing trouble!
