Spotted when out walking;

New born lamb taking first steps out in a field. The farmer has put a bread wrapper around the lamb to prevent it getting hypothermia.


C&C welcome

Lambs are cute so by association I like the pic, but I was expecting a picture of breakfast

Erm bad choice of words

I have to admit that everytime I look at the shot I think of lamb and bread at the same time; ergo lamb sandwich

First time I have seen a lamb with a coat on.........how bloody stupid!! It's worse than those owners who buy coats for their dogs!

Strangely enough when I first saw this I wondered what was going on. Then I found out that the farmer puts these on to help prevent the newborn lambs from getting hypothermia. Which is one of the major causes of lamb mortality.

It's not that stupid.... it's cheaper to use a bread bag than it is to feed a Ewe for a whole year only to lose her Lamb to pneumonia.

I would have thought the major cause of Lamb mortality would be the butchers

Now I'm being faceitious
