Well, it's that time again, so Dellie is in the Barn nice and cosy from the outside world. Hamish outside, waiting for the day he has his cigar when piggies wiggies are born ... π€π€π·π·β₯οΈβ₯οΈ
Well, we've done it π±.
Yep, we now have a very unique Shepherd's Hut which we are hoping to rent out, for holiday let's next year.
Lots of paperwork to be completed and a few tweaks and updates to do on and in the Shepherds Hut but fingers crossed, this will be up and running as soon as possible.... π€π€π€
So here we have our own hatched Christmas Turkeys. Very proud of these wee ones. Still have 6 more to hatch in a week's time and hopefully they will all survive their first two weeks. All those that have hatched, so far, are now in the Barn - cosy with heat lamps, food and water and a lovely area for them to flap about.
Orders are coming in for Christmas now, I know I need to contact a couple of you but I'm just wanting to know how many we will, hopefully have available.
OMG. Our very own Pulled Pork, reared and eaten ..... With homemade BBQ sauce and heated rolls for tonight's tea.... Wow, wow, wow.
This is a practice for the Glengarry Highland Games - Scotland which is being held on Saturday 6th July in Invergarry. Should be a great day guys so why not come along.
Well I can certainly say the festive season has started β₯οΈβ₯οΈβ₯οΈβ₯οΈ

Wildside Market again today.
Selling Pork Burgers, Joints, Ribs, Chipolatas. All straight from our Croft..... Only here from 11am - 12.30pm.....
Or you can always call in at the Croft at Lyne Mhor Croft.
Thanks so much for the people who came and bought our produce today. First Wednesday in every month, rain, shine, snow or sun, seems to be working for those of you who regularly come along now. I will be here again at Wildside, on Wednesday 5th June. Hope to see you all back.......
A stonker of a lamb, born just over a week ago, was brought in to the Barn a couple of days ago, with her mummy due to a very bad leg from lambing. Metacam and antibiotics injected now, but they will probably be in the Barn for a while yet until she can walk better.ππ
Also a couple of months ago we sold our lovely Heather and Thistle (2 sows) who now live in Perth. They were 'in pig' at the time and after driving over to Grantown, to Lynbreck Croft yesterday, (who very kindly picked two gilts (female weaners)), up from Perth along with 4 males for themselves, we now have 2 of Heather's babes here on the Croft. π·π·
Selection of eggs being laid now - fresh free range.
Duck, Hen and Turkey Eggs....
Lyne Mhor Croft, Gorthleck.
Well a couple of our wee babies have come home. β₯οΈβ₯οΈβ₯οΈβ₯οΈππππ
Our own grown potatoes are chitting, so we have decided to sell them for growing.
Β£4.50 for a 2kg bag of a selection of King Edward's and Roosters.
If you would like a bag then just message us and we will reserve some for you.... π₯π₯π₯π₯
This wee market is definitely the place to be tomorrow guys.....
So we don't often re-home any of our animals but today our sweet male call duck plus two ladies have gone to a forever home just 5 miles away.....
Dewi the call duck has settled very well. X # # is absolutely smitten and I kid you not. She has not moved from beside them since they arrived. Except for half an hour when we dragged her in for lunch. we will keep them in this run for 24 hrs just to make sure everyoneβs fine. Our lone duck is very happy to see them even though she is the other side of the fence. So far so good. ! Thank you !! X
Finished farrowing just after midnight, what I thought, went to bed, up checking this morning and now there's 12 alive.
Final count 12 alive, 1 dead and 2 mummyfied. (Mummyfied piglets is, for some reason, covers it in, like a shroud so the other piglets survive - possibly because there may be something wrong with it).
Well now it's all u to the Pig God how many survive. ππ½
Well she's started, piglets on their way π±π±π±
Nesting, up and down and squirting milk.
