Sheep wears a braaaa to support damaged udders
A ewe has found support in a large maternity bra after a triplet pregnancy left her udders damaged and saggy.
Rose, a romney ewe from a small lifestyle farm in Clevedon had her udders' suspensory ligaments damaged when she began producing high volumes of milk while in her final trimester of pregnancy with triplets, causing them to hang low.
After giving birth to three black lambs, her owners were given a 24J maternity bra by lingerie company Rose and Thorne and after 2-3 weeks of wearing it, Rose's udders significantly reduced in size, meaning surgery to remove them was not required.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
