First Batch of Lambs

Last week, my boyfriend and I went through all the lambs that were born last March/April and separated them by female and male! It was not the easiest task, sense they have not be led in and out of a pen before. The older ones know when to go and where to go when we are moving them around the farm yard. The female lambs were clipped with a new ear piece (this is so we know who is related to what ram we have in the farm yard) and they were sent off into the grasslands with their mothers. The boys, however, went to market. We do not keep any of the boys. We band them when they are little and when they hit about 6 months, that is when they are off the farm yard. The picture I took of them was right after we separated the females and males. The girls were a little shook up after seeing that their herd was cut in half.
