Had a quick rescue mission to do yesturday, the old ram we put out on the grazings with the ewes ( to catch any that missed the first time around) had wandered off on his own and had appeared out near the road about 2 miles and round a hill from where the ewes are. A couple of friends had seen him and where concerned that there might be something wrong as he was on his own and had been seen butting fence posts and walking along the fence line and following the ditches. They where worried that he may be blind or have an eye infection, as the above behavior is typical of a sheep with either of those problems. But no he is fine except for a few ticks, now removed and spot on'd, he must have just fancied a wander.
