Sheep
Phew - what a start to 2014!
A Happy New Year from all of us at The Smallholder Series. We hope you haven't suffered too badly in the storms. For us, it's mostly been about the mud...
Things to do this month!
As the days begin to lengthen, there's always plenty to do on your smallholding. Check over your ram now his work is done. Make a mud-free area for your chickens. Fish oils are excellent for your pigs - providing slow-release energy. Start 'chitting' early potatoes if you have somewhere out of the frost.
Keep up with all your smallholding tasks with our comprehensive guides to sheep, chickens, pigs and the vegetable garden. Just click on an image below.
