Sad news

After looking like she was going to come through all her various problems, sadly this morning little Splinty had died - it was sudden and unexpected, as she had not looked ill. However, Splinty was a victim of nature, as she was conceived during last year's terrible floods when all the sheep had to go in together, and Splinty was one of a couple of lambs that were in-bred due to the Mums running with their own father, Charlie the tup, for a few days. This was probably why she had her leg problems, and was most likely why something caused her to just die. It was a very sad moment, for me and for her mum Cassie. RIP Splinty.
