Note to self - lambs are not as tough as calves. No more winter babies!

The current count is 3 lambs, 1 ewe and 1 kid - which when we are only running 30 head is a fair few.

At least I have a good supply of very, very tender lamb meat now!

We have also had huge losses with lambing after the cold snaps. The sheep camps look like a war zone. Calves are copeing well as have only had a few get sick from cold. Tony.

We haven't lost any stock recently, but the nextdoor neighbour has a menagerie of animals, ducks, pigs, goats, x-staffie pups and a few calves. She is not having much luck, has lost 3 ducks to foxes, 3 goats to snakes and a week old jersey heifer to cold. After almost losing her foot to the ride-on mower she is having a hard time adapting to the new rural lifestyle.

The bigger plate use the diaphragm pressure plate. This has a different locating dowel pattern than the smaller clutch. You will need to re-drill the flywheel, or get a six cylinder or diesel flywheel.

Thanks. I forgot they diferent dowelsI'm not going to do all that just for a old farm hack. Looks like the 9" goes back in. So can order one now When I get the brakes going on the S1 I will split it then. If my calving heifers let me. Tony. Trying to rain here again with driving wind
