Glad to see the rams doing well on @BBCCountryfile. @AdamHenson has been using our rams for a number of years on his commercial flock. "they're fantastic these romney rams" #nzromney #wairereuk

A plea that if you ever see a sheep stuck on her back...please approach her slowly and carefully (so not to frighten her) & help roll her back to her feet!

If she is left like this, she could easily die. You could save her life! 🐑
