Wednesday 25th December - Christmas Day

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

All 49 sheep accountable in Eastern compound, 14 WFW & 35 Shetland. No limping, however WFW 112 (I call Brutus, I think others called him Kit) he has a large tick in his left ear.

WFW 169 has a bloody scratch on his nose. 

Shetland (number unknown) right horn curling into eye and causing eye lid to twitch and struggle to close. He may need a horn trim.

All water troughs full, sheep nuts tub over half full. 

7 walkers and 6 dogs seen on site, all on leads or outside eastern compound. 

Fencing in order, I believe WFW 112 has been getting out through lower gate 7. I adjusted the gate weight so it should shut automatically, too much friction on the wire cable.

A lot of WFW Rams mounting a Shetland ewe, then fighting afterwards. 3 x WFW after one ewe, lots of testosterone about today.
