Wordless Wednesday - Drafting the Rams out

Sunday afternoon after a lovely Mother's Day lunch at the local pub we came home and drafted the Rams out of a mob of Ewes. We can expect babies about July/August!
A sad Ram to be leaving his ladies


Heading up the drafting race, Rmas to the left, Ewes to the right.

  11. Love the photos! We always feel a bit sorry for the rams! Six weeks of hedonism, followed by 46 weeks of chastity. Not much balance. We start lambing our cross breds in about 2 weeks, and our merinos are in August. Never a dull moment on the farm!
