April 2012

Our final Aberdeen Angus calf arrived a few days ago, with no problems for mother or son. The weather has been hugely variable with hail, sleet, and bright warm sunshine – all within the same day or even the same hour!
3 more sheep to lamb, hopefully within the next day or two. Grass seed has been sown on a couple of fields where we have had stubble turnip previously and fertiliser applied to the silage fields to boost the grass growth.
