Checking on new- born lambs in the Netherlands

March 17, 2009

calfs_2009

On our way to an investigation we came across a small flock of sheep in a field, with several new-born lambs of just a few days of age. The farmer greeted us and spoke about his sheep with admiration. They had an indoor area and a large outdoor field. One could tell that the animals were well-treated because they did not show any fright towards the farmer, if anything they approached him and stood by his side. The sheep and new-born all appeared in very good shape. We enjoyed this short visit!

💔 Jonge scharminkels zoals deze gaan op verre transporten naar Kroatië, Spanje, Italië en Portugal om aan het spit te belanden.
Weinig consumenten realiseren zich dat het de “kneusjes” zijn van de Nederlandse varkenshouderij: biggen die we niet meer willen: te veel zorg nodig…
