Relaxed FarmingHow to look after us... (as answered by Mrs White). We don't need a lot of looking after, apart from at lambing time when it is best to keep a really close eye on us... and we do need to be well fenced in as that grass the other side does look good...

  • The grass is always greener: we do, as you probably know, love our grass but a bit like when you are standing with your iPhone 5 looking through the shop window at the latest iPhone 6, we do often wish we were eating the grass on the other side of the fence.

    BUT if we have a HUGE field we will enjoy wandering around it looking for the best grass OR, possibly even better, divide the field into lots of small paddocks and then rotate us round each one so we get lovely fresh grass every few days! Simple!!!
