Fab day yesterday… the whole Herdie and co flock had their pedicures (not just the lame ones)… and fly prevention treatment applied 👌
They were also moved to a new field which had been rested for a month 💕

Yesterday was yearly vaccination day for everyone… sheep, goats and alpacas
They were keen to come in this time as the weather has just been ridiculously awful
A little reprieve from the torrential rain 👌

Tiggy had decided she loved the grass in the goat enclosure… until her pals disappeared over the hill 😏
Thankfully Elvis and co waited for her 😍

When they’re getting their breakfast/supper it’s the perfect time to give them a wee check over… and for them to check me out 😏

The Herdwick and co flock came in for a checkup too… thankfully they’re a bit more hardy than the Valais flock 👌

Sheep can be dangerous human eating animals 😏
Have a good Monday ☺️

A Lakeland scene in the Buttermere valley on a bright winters day. Herdwick Sheep graze on the steep grassy slope of a fell. Their fleeces are a mixture of mainly black, grey and white. Their faces and legs are white. In the background are some rocky fells rising above the valley bottom and the line of trees behind the sheep. The lower green and brown slopes are in shade, the grey craggy summit is highlighted by the low winter sun. Traditional stone walls are visible at the bottom of the slope in the valley. The sky is pale blue.
#BlueSkyArtShow Cumbria is #Home to the Herdwick breed of sheep, grazing on the steep slope of the fell.

This is what my whole flock would look like if I was given a set of shears 🫣
#herdwicksheep, due to their close genetic link to wild sheep, can sometimes shed their fleece naturally as the weather warms 👌

Good Morning to Ewe all!❤️🐑 #herdwicksheep 🐑❤️
It’s Tuewesday ❤️🐑❤️ #herdwicksheep 💚
