Before the new year really starts, I thought I had better finish off summarising the events for the second half of 2012.

2012 Lambs

I moved the sheep to the ‘Far East’ paddock and took stock of which ewes had lambs.  There were eight new lambs, so including the three from earlier this year in January and March that’s 11 lambs and a total of 29 sheep including lambs.  Even Spotty Nose had another lamb this year and she would be close to ten years old.  At shearing time when we tagged and marked the lambs, I was pleased to see that there were 3 boys and 8 girls, and some of the boys will stay as merino wethers.
