Scottish farmer Andrew Jack is the one that has started to paint his sheep in bright red and blue colors to &#8220;spice things up&#8221; so people could smile on their way to and from work. They are sprayed with animal-friendly paint, something they don&#8217;t mind at all, and they will remain colorful until sheared. It all started when the farmer wanted to paint them blue to mark St Andrew&#8217;s Day, but now that it has become an attraction in itself, the thought of using other colors as pink has crossed the farmers mind.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheeps-high-way.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2402\" title=\"red-sheeps-high-way\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheeps-high-way.jpg\" alt=\"red-sheeps-high-way\" width=\"550\" height=\"368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheeps-high-way.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheeps-high-way-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheep-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2401\" title=\"red-sheep-2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheep-2.jpg\" alt=\"red-sheep-2\" width=\"550\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheep-2.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/red-sheep-2-300x220.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/sheeps-red.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2397\" title=\"sheeps-red\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/sheeps-red.jpg\" alt=\"sheeps-red\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/sheeps-red.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/sheeps-red-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheeps.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2400\" title=\"blue-sheeps\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheeps.jpg\" alt=\"blue-sheeps\" width=\"550\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheeps.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheeps-300x164.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheep.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2399\" title=\"blue-sheep\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheep.jpg\" alt=\"blue-sheep\" width=\"550\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheep.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/blue-sheep-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/bluesheep.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2398\" title=\"bluesheep\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/bluesheep.jpg\" alt=\"bluesheep\" width=\"550\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/bluesheep.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thisblogrules.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/bluesheep-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a> Sheep has been used as ideas to several other things, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisblogrules.com\/2009\/11\/sheep-sculptures-made-from-rotary.html\">these sheep sculptures made out of rotary telephones. <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have driven on the M8 in Scotland lately and seen red and blue sheep grazing on the fields, be sure that it&#8217;s not a hallucination.
