Relaxed FarmingOur offspring... (as told by Mrs Brown). People really do love lambs don't they? Badger Face sheep lamb really easily and we are lovely mums (well apart from the fact we let our 'children' end up on your dinner plate!!!).

  • Spring has arrived when you see lambs in the field: Read more

  • Bring on the ram: as with the goats, rabbits and all other mammals (including humans), a male and a female sheep are needed to produce our lambs. For us, sometime in August a new ram is brought onto the Relaxed smallholding so we can all get to know each other before it is time to mate.

    Sheep have seasons just like goats (a season is a period of time when we are ready to be mated with) but unlike goats we are VERY quiet about ours and it is usually only the ram who notices because we smell a bit different and (slightly embarrassed here) we also flirt with him a bit and go all 'girly'!! Moving on...
