Sheep mating season

We are just about to take this years lambs to the abattoir and Raasay is busy thinking og next years. We have to watch out for him this time of year and remind him who the boss is if he starts trying to butt us. He may be small, but it would do a lot of damage!

Raasay is the one with the big horns.

Dagmar. Her mum died when she was quite young and she has always been a bit small and special. Nice soft fleece though. Her appearance isn't helped by the fact that I put her ear tags in back to front.

Making the 'ram face' where he kind of curls his lips up. I think he is smelling whether the ewe is in heat or not.
