Just Another Sheep Post

You’re not tired yet of sheep posts, are you? These sheep all lined up for the photoshoot.

This is Coco, one of the March lambs.

Hazel, who is becoming one of the tamest sheep here, just like her mom, Jade.

Belle, my granddaughter’s sheep born last year.

This is a wether, Rocky. The wethers are the lucky ones—they didn’t end up in someone’s freezer. He would not have made it as a breeding ram. He has six horns and that’s acceptable for registration as long as four are differentiated and balanced. I keep a few wethers around so that there is always a buddy sheep in case I have to isolate a ram for some reason.

Here is Addy, a BFL x Jacob ewe. She is so much a pet that she won’t move out of the way when I want her to.

This is her gorgeous fleece.

Enough of sheep? How about a goat? This happens when I clean the barn with goats around.

Hearing that we might finally get some rain, Dan focused on getting the pasture mowed one last time. It is good to mow the dallisgrass as close as possible to give other plants a better chance to grow.
