It's been a grotty day today - drizzly and dull. And my two girls spent most of the time in their shelter, just popping out to the 'Paca poo pile every now and then.
So around 3pm, as the drizzle seemed to have stopped, I decided to see if I could get them out for some exercise. I didn't think I had a hope in hell. But as I walked down the paddock in the direction of the little gate through to the neighbouring field, I called them. And they followed me. Into the field. So, as I was obviously on a roll...I decided to run shouting 'Come on girls'. And they ran too. Every time I ran out of their sight...they came running after me to find me. We did this for about an hour. Then the hens came to join us. This life is just ridiculous. I am so lucky. In other news...
And finally... Feeding time at the zoo

Sheep dipping - now that was an experience (for the unsuspecting sheep...and farm dogs).
The look of sheer terror on their faces as they went up the ramp...to suddenly drop into a deep bath of freezing cold water. And then to have their heads dunked too. Thankfully they have all recovered. And hopefully the itching (reason for their bath) will stop and they can prepare for the next onslaught.... LEGEND and ARNIE. We're at that tupping time of year. Where the two new rams are let loose. And my goodness. These are fucking huge (very well-endowed) rams. In other news...
