A few weeks ago we took in 4 young fox cubs, they had been found cuddling their dead mother. Sadly it seems their mother had been killed. This poor family was far too young to survive on their own, so we have taken them in. Initially they were on milk, we have now weaned them…
Well its sheep sheering time again. We have seven sheep at the moment, we sheer them ourselves and take the opportunity to worm them, trim their hooves and give them a good check over. This is Jeff, he’s not the usual sheep, he actually doesn’t mind being sheered, he makes it look far easier than…
