On Tuesday, March 26, we shall reopen the sheep market alone for the sale of spring lambs, hoggs and cull ewes by auction. |
In the thick undergrowth of the Scottish hills the Beardie would control stubborn ewes by bouncing and barking in front of them. |
The farmer then gauges the progress by the number of ewes with coloured hindquarters, indicating which of his flock have been serviced. |
The heavily pregnant ewes were scattered in all directions, as the ferocious dogs ran riot in the field. |
Firstly, we shall be selling in the sheep shed with a full live auction of hoggs, ewes and spring lambs, if there are any about. |
Disturbing ewes or sudden changes in diet can cause embryo losses, the result is lower litter sizes and barren ewes. |
