Passed a field on a hack this morning which had a flock of sheep in it - all completely dyed a strange mustard colour. sheep in neighbouring field were normal sheep colour.....

any idea why they'd be yellow??

They will have been dipped prior to selling at the market, its called Purl dip. They will most likely be pedegree breeding ewes.
