The Pied Piper of.........

Or how to move sheep ( part 2)

A clutch of ewes  all with twins need to be moved to fresh grazing.  Sheep, at times, arent that  bright  and they are relatively easy to train to follow  a bucket of feed.

So you start with your sheep all gathered at the top of the field.

 And then you walk them down the field


And then you walk them across the field



And you keep going , and they arrive at their destination

To pastures new ( part 1)

So one of the young rams  need to rejoin the crowd we have.  And they aren't always the most  cooperative hen it comes to moving them .


 So the one on the left (Aragon) is the one that needs to be  moved.

And get him to be caught ( food is a good attraction)
And then catch ram and load into trailer

And deliver.
