Yesterday, Glenn, Tracey, Jordan, Cody and Reuben arrived to capture two of the seven lambs. The sheep were herded into the fruit orchard and cornered - whilst the rest of us desparately tried to keep them penned in, Reuben showed great skill and dexterity diving onto the chosen lambs and loading them into the trailer. The fences in the sheep paddock were pretty useless - lambs and sheep jumping over and away.
The two ram lambs spent the night in the pens, and Glenn and Reuben arrived today to take them to the butcher. To ensure they didn't jump out of the trailer en route, Glenn "hamstrung" them with a rope.
One of the lambs is for Ashley's wedding whilst the other is destined for the spit at Jeff and Brenna's engagement party...
