Anyone know why this sheep is so red?

1. An ink pad is put onto the front of a ram, so that you can tell which sheep have been mated with.

2. Eez been a very naughty boy.

3. The rams have a box of dye, so the farmer knows which sheep has had the pleasure…

   That sheep is either very popular with the ram, or it all leaked out…

4. It’s had plenty of sexy time. Tupped is the actual term.

5. Red wine jus ?

6. When a daddy and a mommy sheep love each other very much……

   It’s called a raddle, and it’s (usually) put into a harness on the Ram. When the Ram mounts the Ewe, he will leave a mark, which indicates that the Ewe has been mated. Farmers will often change the colour of the raddle periodically (weekly) so they have an idea of when the Ewe is due to lamb.

7. Been double tupped by a pair of rams.

8. Just like flamingos – from eating brine shrimp.

9. She’s been well and truly tupped

10. That’s what spitroasted mutton looks like before it hits your plate.

11. So the Welsh can have their Chris de Burgh moment.

12. Either she’s a pretty one or she has a lovely personality

13. Donner kebab already got the chilli sauce boss.

14. Out too long in this ‘heatwave’?

15. Because she puts out, lots.

16. The Aberdeen fans love her lots

17. I spilt my paint can on it

18. Blood feud.

20. That’s a murder sheep. Don’t go near it like the last poor soul

21. They breed red sheep to make Christmas jumpers

22. My Dad told me this was the colour of jumper they would be made into. I believed him for years. God I miss that man and his weird sense of humour!

23. It’s been Ram raided!

24. Communist.

25. Oh my god, my parents told me it was so the farmers could tell their sheep apart if they got mixed with another flock – I’ve believed that until today!! I’m 34!!
