All 61x sheep counted and all 9x cattle. They all seem fine - no concerns.
The Shetlands are a little more challenging to spot, as they're darker, smaller and haven't yet integrated into the main flock. However, they joined with the main flock as I led them up onto the higher ground so we didn't get the cows too excited while I looked them over.
The cattle are respecting the electric fence, but I didn't volunteer myself to test if it was live..
The status light on the energiser was flashing red, which I think means that it's running low on charge:

Other than that, all seems good. Troughs are working. The hedge layers have already made a really good start and I'm looking forward to seeing it when it's finished.
Merry Christmas!
Chris
