Nova Scotia Shepherd

Dogs watching over the lambs. Lots of coyote problems this year unfortunately. #sheep365

@Maolfarmiona Same here, very very dry June and lots of rain in July

@ns_sheep We’ve had usual dry spring/early summer, then back to rain!!

@ns_sheep how’s things over the water???

Trying to get some ploughing done but sheep had other plans #sheep365

Back at the grass.

One of these lambs is not like the others. #sheep365

More triplets than usual this year. They get the best grass. #sheep365

@lamlacvolac Weather has been poor early on and a very late spring but all things considered #lambing2020 is going great, thanks for asking!

@ns_sheep Indeed! Looks like a beautiful skyline as well! How is #lambing2020 going? #Sheep365

Love lambing outside when the weather is good! #sheep365

Ewe lambs now all lambing on grass and doing a fine job at it so far. #sheep365

Behaviour of a livestock gaurdian dog when confronted by a sheep. #sheep365

@HREBrookwater Luckily lambing just started, only have about 100 lambs out. Have 4 warming up next to a heater now. Wind is really making things worse

@ns_sheep Be a disaster if we tried that , haha

It's 2020. In Nova Scotia. Enough said... #sheep365

@VeronicaVermeul Not good lambing weather for sure...

@ns_sheep 🥺😳 looks chilly !!!

Not exactly the lambing weather I was hoping for in May. #sheep365

Lambs coming pretty quick now. #sheep365

Have some extra help with lambing and setting up fences. Got a little distracted when he found a worm! #sheep365

@Ampandrew Thanks! Just need some sun!

@ns_sheep Good luck

Lambing just getting underway here. Would like to see a little more grass but off to a good start anyway. #sheep365

@Maolfarmiona Getting on ok, rough year trying to make a living at sheep! Very low prices last fall but luckily really picked up over winter so that helped. Hope this year is a good one!

@ns_sheep Snow!!! How you getting on over there anyway??

Another beautiful spring day... Lambing starts in a little over a week, hoping the grass gets growing fast! #sheep365
