If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure: Call the office on 01489 774400. If no one answers, wait for the answering message which will detail the name and mobile number of the member of staff who is currently on call. Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly. NOTES: Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call. If you are unsure if a particular situation qualifies as an emergency then please phone the on-call member of staff anyway so that they can make the decision on how to proceed. Most importantly of all – please do not report injuries or sick animals via the blog alone – always call the emergency on-call contact. Thank you!

Monday 11th November

 All 49 Sheep found and healthy all came to me when I called them for Sheep Nuts as they were all within 50-100m of the Corral (they were all in a circle around me when I fed them, hence my first count was 54 :-)).

One of the Shetlands has some bramble stuck to its outer coat but it does not seem to be bothering it.

I tried to remove it gentle but ideally it needs two.

The water trough was full but the main container is now quite low.

The sheep nuts are about 1/3 full, so could do with topping up.

All fences and gates fine, no dog walkers seen in the compartment (only the path outside the compartments).
