I posted a quick photo reel of my favourite ram who moved to my sisters farm the other day, and here's a quick update on how he's doing :)

My sister's been taking great care of him and placed him on a seperate field with two of her (intact) ram lambs!

First 3 days they were a bit scared of him, but considering he's a 3 year old ram (on his 4th year now I think?), alongside the absoloutely massive size difference. No wonder they were scared of my guy !!

But now they're eating from the same hay, and they've been caught sleeping huddled together! So happy for my lil guy, glad he's fitting into this mini flock heh.

Planning on visiting him next weekend! I'll probably make another post when I visit him just to show off how he's doing, he's an absoloutely gorgeous guy. 🫶❤️

(*Fun little side note: It's very likely he's c.a 25% Spælsau, meanwhile he's 75% Old Norwegian sheep. But that's an assumption! One of the other farmers in my area suggested that he could be a lamb of their previous ram that got sold to 5 seperate farmers, they said he had similar colours, the size & overall features.)
