A sheep that was shot on a Suffolk rare breeds farm has made a full recovery, having recently given birth to “gorgeous” twins.
The sheep from the Baylham House Rare Breeds Farm was shot at the end of September last year.
The farm located in Mid Suffolk then posted on its social media: ‘To our absolute horror, one of our sheep has been shot! The police have been informed.
‘She is doing ok considering and has been given pain relief, antibiotics and cleaned up. She will remain under close observation.
The rest of the herd are showing no signs of injury but are clearly uneasy as we cannot get anywhere near them when usually they’ll come over.’
