On Sunday we brought the pregnant ewes back from the field down the village. With my brother helping it all went very smoothly and calmly until we got them home. Brownie my Shetland whether was jumping for joy at the return of his friends but Skye one of the Cheviot X twins set about challenging Brownie's mother Sophie an old Shetland ewe. The head banging got quite fercious for a while but Sophie stood her ground as leader of the flock.
Later it was Mother's fencing job at an attempt to keep the three chickens off her garden. She has called them Hetty, Betty and Bossy and is getting two or three eggs every day. Bossy is my favourite, she squats down when I go up to her so I can pick her up.
I have been busy dyeing wool and yarn. The new look collage packs are almost complete. They will contain more for the same price and will come with some creative ideas.
