Tuesday 29 July

Sheep were in two groups this morning, the 20 Shetland were in the hedge along the north fence at the western end. 18 responded to call, two just stood in the trees ignoring me. All looked healthy, no limping, no sign of fly strike that I could see. 

Meanwhile all 20 WFW were around the trough. All came to the call, all looked healthy to me, no limping or signs of fly strike etc. The one with the cut to the neck seems fine, and I could not see signs of infection ( the one time I thought I could photo his number I got photo bombed by a Shetland). A number of this group like playing with the fence, putting their feet through it or standing on strands so I wonder if he slipped and cut himself on the barbed wire. 

Food and water fine, no walker or dogs.
