We are still moving the sheep every 3days (or more often of needed) to help keep the fields from becoming too muddy. It is also good for the sheep to walk on the hard tracks- this allows any built up mud to fall put of their feet.

Today we bought in the last of the cattle for the winter! We have moved into half of the new barn, and it really is what dreams are made of. A barn, built for our cattle and sheep, with a dry roof and no water coming up under the floor! Alot of hard work, changing of plans, building temporary pens last winter, making things work with what we had. Now we have atleast half of the barn usable, and hopefully the other half will be done in time for the main flock to lamb! A huge thanks to our lovely builders and the lamdlords for working with us together on this project. Marc Hamlett Amy Hamlett

A new calf born, but her mum is a frst time mum who loves her calf so much she will not let it suckle, every time the calf tries the mother turns around following the calf! So we have milked her off and Roise and William fed the calf. We would usually feed the calf off the mother when she is restrained, but this mother is a little bit lively and would not co operate! Hopefully she will settle happily into motherhood soon enough and allow her lovely calf to suckle its self! Marc Hamlett Amy Hamlett

Wild eggs from our one and only Wild chicken in the cow hay this morning! She is a wild chicken that loves to roost with the cows at night, not like our free range hens who have a lovely hen house in their paddock! Marc Hamlett Amy Hamlett

Gem has always had a special place in our hearts. ❤️ she was born very prematurely on Rosies 1st birthday, so they have had a very close and special bond over the last 8 years. Gem loves apples, cake and bread- not forgetting a good old scratch!
