I counted 59 sheep this morning, and again I could not see any with pronounced limp. They were a bit more subdued today (i.e. they mugged me less robustly) and they were on the higher slopes when I arrived, I assume cold air was pooling below. A couple had bramble attached but would not let me get close enough to remove it. I broke the ice in the trough (is this the right thing to do?).
The purpose of this blog is: For lookers to post a record of their livestock checks. To act as a formal record of livestock wellbeing and welfare checks. For lookers to access up-to-date information on livestock and site status, and the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust.
