Jools Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 This is really about chickens, but the stars of the show are the lambs A couple of weeks ago I watched as there was a stand off between a ewe and one of my Rhodes in the field. It ended when the Rhode gave the sheepie a sharp peck on the nose. Well sheep-kind have had their revenge! We watched the incredibly mischievious lambs tormenting George and his Gals on Friday and thought it was a one off. Well obviously not!! This is what happened this afternoon when I chucked them their corn .... the lambs came to town!! Click picture to view They’re Herdwicks and Swaledales with a cross or two in there too. Probably the cutest lambs on the planet!! While I was filming their escapades, the two naughtiest black ones crept up behind me and tried to climb on my back. I think I’m in love!!

Chucky Mama Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I love lambs when they get to that thuggish stage. I can just see the chickens in a huddle plotting their revenge though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jools Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 It's my neighbour's field, he's just kind enough to let me keep a few chooks down there (and let hubby store wood and various "toys" that don't fit in the garden!). I've kept George & Gals in their run this morning but they're looking pretty miffed. I think they'd rather run the lamb gauntlet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Lovely lambs, remind me of lurcher pups! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 The black ones are not much bigger than my Patterdale - I keep seeing them out of the corner of my eye and panicking that he's got into the field and is chasing sheep!!! I don't think my neighbour would be quite so kind if that ever happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
