One of our bantams won a championship prize at the Wigtown show, for our son in the junior section. He also won best juvenile handler 2015.
All the remaining lambs have been weaned and the ewes are off up the hill for a summer rest before it is time to meet the tups again!
Here we are at clipping time with all the ewes being clipped and their wool being rolled up, bagged and sold off to make those wooley jumpers for Christmas. Bet they feel much cooler with their new hair cut!!
Here is our old stock bull – Billy. He too is quiet and sensible to work with and enjoys roaming around the Ross farmland. He produces us with some lovely quality calves.
The new addition to the Ross herd is steady Eddie, as we have called him. He is really quiet and only young. Hopefully he will work well and produce us some lovely young calves in the spring!
A few days after his arrival our new bull has met some of the girls and now looks rather settled.
We have recently purchased a new bull which is a Belgian blue cross limousin to join our herd down here at Ross Farm. He is 2 years old, rather good looking, very sensible, and hopefully he will be a good dad!!!
Its this time of year that a farm comes to live, it is a hive of activity after a long winter. The cows are back in the fields and calving underway. While lambing has brought the joy of the new season to us all and you will see small groups of lambs charging around, jumping
On of our cows has had a lovely calf on Christmas day – it has been named by a friend as Snowflake as its the nearest thing to snow this Christmas day. Born on Christmas morn! A photo posted by Ross Bay Retreat (@rossbayretreat) on Dec 25, 2014 at 5:04am PST
