View Full Version : Is Icke a Sheep?
This is a video of a little lamb I managed to save by placing it with a Ewe who had lost her own lamb. I placed it in the skin, or jacket, of the dead lamb so that the Ewe would take to it. I was going to call it Imadinnerjacket after the Persian Prime Minister but changed my mind and have called him Icke instead.
One day he'll grow up to be a lovely pedigree Texel Ram. Bless.
Enjoy - YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
I'm hoping he'll become the mascot for this forum :)

That is an interesting picture. It resonates with the "sheep" inside me that feels trapped.

Half man half sheep eh lol. Where I live Lancashire the people from Liverpool call us woolybacks! Because we have more fields here and sheep.
Thing is the term wooly back actually originated from the dock workers at liverpool, when they where loading, unloading the ships with wool bits would fall off and cover their backs lol.
Also the Liverpool accent came about when the Irish sheeple came over to England and bread with the Lancahsire sheeple, if you mix the two accents together you get a scouse accent! Liverpool is a new city, parts of Lancashire are ancient places sheeped I mean steeped in history.
Okay history lesson over. :D
How cute. The lamb wearing the skin of the dead lamb is somewhat disturbing, Kind of like a horror movie with lambs. I guess necessary for the mother to accept the little guy. :)
Yeah, a bit peculiar but necessary.
Moverover, he was from a set of triplets & three lambs can wreck a Ewe so it's common place for the weakest to be put down. I don't like doing that so they go on the bottle three times a day or, ideally, they're fostered onto a Ewe that's lost a lamb.
Lambs are very cute

I once had a pet frozen chicken called Frank. When he thawed I used his wrinkley white skin to make a new face (I was bored with mine).
I think the name of your new lamb is wonderful, and I for one endorse it as the forum mascot.
