Pees hasn't forgotten about all the attention lavished upon her when she was a lamb, and sometimes it catches up with her in such strong waves that it becomes overwhelming...... it doesn't help that she has the words "But what about Me" printed through her center like a stick of Brighton Rock!... today's antics left me with rather large footprints over my chest and my thighs, as she decided it was her turn to eat ivy leaves, and she thought that the best way of getting my attention was to climb onto my lap..... not easy for a fully grown sheep and not too comfortable for me !! ...... Oooouch! ..... and I hope Lilly isn't picking up bad habits either
I've just been round to the reading room field to give Lilly her lunch, half a bottle of milk which is now one third of her daily intake. I've reduced her meals down to 3 milk with the addition of 2 creep feeds to get her growing at the same rate as the other lambs. This meal was delivered with a side order of ivy leaves while sitting on the side of the water trough, it has a cover on the water intake which makes a convenient seat when it hasn't been raining and Lilly knows the routine very well....... only today Peewee had other ideas!
