Yes, I’m back from Canada. Yes I have photos. No, I haven’t been able to post them because a lot has happened in my life again. I will have some posts coming in the next few days though, one of which concerns the car in the picture...

The sheep are blue. Why are the sheep blue?

Livestock branding, so the farmers can identify which sheep belong to them. The paint is a special non-toxic type obviously, as regular spray paint would harm them.

Cloudy, overcast weather and seasonal depression?

Those sheep look horny.

Wouldn’t that wash off and need reapplied every so often (or when they inevitably get sheared)? What’s wrong with a simple ear tag?

It’s just easier and quicker. They have ear tags too. For example, if a blue sheep strays into the field belonging to a farmer with red sheep, it’s much easier and quicker to find that sheep instead of checking all of them by tag. And of course, it washes off and they will have to be reapplied every now and then.

Lots of reasons to mark sheep. These ones are marked to show who owns them. Ewes are scanned after the ram has dealt with them and marked to show how many lambs (if any) to expect from each one.

When the ram is about his business he’s equipped with paint under his neck so that he’ll mark each ewe as gets to them and so the farmer can see if any rams are underperforming and thus in need of a one way trip to a factory.

Coloured ear tags.
