With Lambing at Greenvale in full swing with one mob of sheep a second mob were being prepared today starting with crutching. The sheep were rounded up the night before and as many as will fit are put inside the shearing sheed and a number of them put under the shearing shed in case it rained. Aparently shearers dont like shearing wet sheep.
After the shearers finishing crutching they are pushed out the shoot. Once enough sheep have been crutched they are pushed up a run with the help of Ace our Australian Kelpie so that they cant move. This helps with the next process which is drenching which prevents worms.
The sheep are now ready for the next process. The lambing.
