Breeding Rare and Native Breeds in Lincolnshire
More new life on the farm today, single (very large for pedigree Hebridean) ram lamb.
Authentic Pedigree Hebridean Hogget (Lamb) Hogget applies to animals that are a year older than conventional lamb. This extra time allows for unhurried growth through pasture grazing. The attached picture provides details of the scheme for which I am registered, you can contact the society for validation of this. I am selling whole hogget boxes at £10/kg based on the animals pre butchered carcass weight. Weights vary from 12-16kg, so a 13.5kg carcass will cost you £135. A typical whole hogget box will contain, 1 whole leg 1 leg in two joints 1 whole shoulder 1 Shoulder in two joints 2 small Rump Joints 1 rack Selection of chops 2 rolled breast joints, Liver, Kidney’s and heart (if you don't want these please let me know) I have 9 boxes available over April and May, £50 deposit secures your order, Remaining balance paid when product is ready for you. If deposits are paid within 48 hours of order I will reduce the final bill by £10, so it comes to £135, ill reduce it to £125, (less you £50 deposit you've paid means £75 to pay) Uk mainland overnight courier deliveries are available at an extra £18 per box. If you would like to place an order please reach out to me via Facebook messenger, commenting below, or emailing andrew@slatehousefarm.co.uk All collections from the farm will be handled in line with current Cover 19 social distancing etc, and thus we prefer no cash payments.

Hoping this short video of the ewes and lambs brings a smile given what's going on.
Productive night lambing. Single pedigree Hebridean ram lamb last night, and twin pedigree Hebridean ram lambs at sunrise. All doing well. 6 down 10 to go :)
