This yow is a yow, no a tup!!
Posted: Saturday, 20 January 2007 |
This here lady is a yow - and she is very insulted that anyone would call her a tup!! She's off in a huff and hasn't nickered** at me for days!!
This photey was taken in the summer when all dangly bits would have been blissfully dangling if she were a tup. BUT she's no.
Her name is Elsie-yow and she's in lamb and as female as they come.
Elsie-yow is a Texel and Texels are stout muscular things that dooooo look a bit manly even in the female variety. (But don't tell Elsie I said that!!)
When Elsie-yow has her lamb I'll post a picture of it sooking fae her udder. Udder. That's something tups don't have. That ought to be proof enough! (As this is 91热爆's forum I can't post a photey of more compelling proof.)
** Sheep nicker just like little wooley horses.

I stand corrected. Obviously been in Shetland too long now, all the sheep here are delicate feminine specimens. Time for a trip back home to Orphir I doot. (Scallowawife TOLD me it wis a yow).

So...I traded my quiet cabin in the Alaskan woods for the howling winds of Orkney and life on a farm.
