Shorn the sheep

A day in the life of Chops, a pet  Charollais crossbreed sheep

Today: Shearing.


BEFORE: Hot and bothered (but quite cuddly).


DURING: It can be a humiliating process.


AFTER: What a handsome chap!

  3. The bottom belongs to Mark, who shears for us very efficiently every year. He finished the last one (of 27) just as the rain came.

  4. And the sheep is stripy! I didn't realise that.

  5. I thought it was another of those optical illusions then, I couldn't see the sheep for looking at the bottom!

    Ya' can't be too careful these days.
