    Hi Nicola and Davie, it's a great idea to muck out the whole shed to give the main batch a lovely clean dry area to start their lambing. The fields still look wet which is a pity cause you have to dump the muck in piles. The ewes should be happy with a clean shed and new straw to lie on. This was your mums job and you still query yourself on this years performance, don't worry, you are doing a great job and she would be proud of your efforts. Now for the next batch of lambs.

    Shed will be much healthier for wee lambs now.
    Don't know how you managed to get such a nice day, only seen the sun for about an hour all week!

    Great to get the muck out and start working fresh and clean reducing the risk of infection. Happy Easter to All.

    Great video as always. You won't be normal if things weren't getting on top of you. You've had a tough few months and your flat out busy. Great job getting the shed cleaned out and set up again. Ye work so hard. Chin up and keep smiling. Happy Easter to ye all. How many pets have you so far.

    Some sweet skills with the telehandler 👌. Love the slow motion dog totally not looking where she's going. I really enjoy how gentle you are with the girls.
    Lovely to watch

    Oh yes right choice mucking oot but worth it --disease pressure dictates. Let the straw compost down over time and spread on the roses and they'll come up smiling. Have a Happy Easter.

    Great job cleaning out the shed Nicola, do you have a yard brush/ bucket for the loader to make scraping up the last bits easier?
    Time will heal eventually, keeping busy helps, and with that amount of lambs due your gonna be busy...❤❤❤

    Hydrated lime is a great disinfectant. I use it every time I clean out shed every week

    It's funny how many sheep farmers are so exhausted at this time of the year. I've actually thought about traveling around, just basically handling any lambing at night so the farmers can get a good night's sleep. Maybe you could hire some part time help just to give yourself a little bit of room to breath.
