early March with Dewr and Merc, she is lambing with Anni and Digs in
Burton on a farm with 2000 ewes, she´ll be back in late May.

Lambing in Rönnäs
I had to stay in
Finland this spring because of my work etc, fortunately I was able
to lamb at Samulis in Rönnäs. When I started in the middle of March, a
couple had already lambed, so we had 200 more to go. I stayed at the
farm for about 4 weeks, from Monday to Friday and went home over the weekends. Samuli did
the nights so it went on quite easy for me.

| Weighing and marking lambs |
All ewes are obviously lambing inside, so there is a lot of work building pens and moving ewes and lambs. Also feeding and strawing take a lot of time, then there is weighing andmarking lambs, feeding pet lambs etc.
In the beginning there were some difficult lambings, and it was satisfying to have the selfconfidence and skills to manage by myself, last years experiences from Wales are worth gold!
Four weeks went all to fast and it was time for me to return to my main work. Thanks Samuli for everything!

The Youngsters
I also found time to train the youngsters a couple of times. Samulis
Frost is coming on well, not the easiest to train but best ones seldom
are
Little Zak is now sold and he´ll be doing agility and some
herding with his new owner. He started to progress well, so I´m a little
bit sad I had to let him go really...
I saw a pic of a nice red bitch on Sophies wall, something in her expression spoke to me...so I bought her.
I have had some bitch owners interested in Coel, so in February I had
both Coels and Rhys eyes checked, both okey. So from now on also Coel is
availeble for stud!
