The weather wasn’t great today, Baby Lamb’s ears were a dead give away he wasn’t feeling very happy.

Over the weekend we noticed that a few of them may need worming so at lunchtime everyone was gathered into a pen and treated.

Once wormed, they were sprayed with a spot of blue paint …

Today we noticed a marble sized growth on Audrey’s chin.  Turns out it was a spot!  We treated it like any other spot.  Squeezed it and put some antiseptic spray on it.

Audrey’s spot is looking much better and the possible ‘worms’ have all cleared up.

At hay time the sheep were definitely full of the joys of spring – bouncing around and playing.
