Tuesday September 6th

The 30 lambs in Barton meadows were all present this afternoon . I was only half way across the field when they saw me and all came rushing across to investigate whether I had anything for them . They all look fine apart from one which has a noticeable limp. It’s near side fore is clealry very sore as it doesn’t like putting much weight on it and lies down at frequent intervals . As usual though I could t get the tag number as while it was uncomfortable it wasn’t so incapacitated that I could get close enough to read the number . Otherwise they are all fine and all grazing enthusiastically 

The trough is fine and the water supply functioning properly
