What do you think of motherhood Jasmine?

Only “kidding”, she’s an absolute star Mum 🌟

What did you do today?

Well, aside from the obvious feed, water and checks of each of our furry family members, today we were on the move!

First, an unplanned move to return the highlands to their field, as some kind soul left their gate open and they went for an unsolicited wander which in itself is not an issue, but they have been known to cross the river and take up residence with our neighbours horse. Theyve also been known to bring said horse back home with them, so not really ideal for either party 🙃.

Cows returned, it was then time for a paddock move for our , first was an enthusiastic Jasmine🙈, followed by Belle and her kids, Nolie and Novak ❤️. They’ll be side by side for a while as Jasmine accepts the babies into the group. The full mesh fence is ideal as she can see everything that’s going on and knows she isn’t missing out. At some point we will roll back the fence and the 4 will, in theory, live in harmony 🙃

And finally, a paddock move, or more accurately, restriction, for our wonderful woollies as we shut 2 of their favourite fields off ready for hay making! Here’s a picture of big fluff who is not so big, nor fluffy, following his haircut last week

A soft introduction for Jasmine to her new “neice and nephew”.

After her stable sister, Belle, welcomed Novak and Nolie earlier this week, Jasmine has her super keen to get near, possibly a little too enthusiastic!

So it’s a soft introduction whilst the he little ones grow in both size and confidence.

She’s one very excited Auntie we think!

🎵 it’s definitely been a long time coming 🎵

After some paw crossing, amazing news from our little girl goat stables, Belle (born Cheshire Lorli), welcomed 2 kids - a little boy and little girl yesterday morning.

Babies both happy and healthy, first time mum is doing ever so well ❤️

Welcome to the world and our furry family, Brockholes Novak (our very own G.O.A.T.) and Brockholes Nolie 😍❤️
