On Saturday morning as I was sprucing up the barn for visitors (Sheep Shares member Lamb Visit Weekend), the lambs were playing their own version of king of the hill on the straw bale I had left in the pen.
At just 8 weeks & under, the ram lambs are already becoming territorial and a bit adversarial. It's all play for the moment, but that will change as time passes. Thought you'd enjoy watching their goofy battle over the bale! (B.T.W. – you can tells the little ewes from the rams by looking at the ear tags. Girls are tagged in the left ear, boys on the right.).
