Well, there are four sheep now and they all posed this morning for the new group profile photo. More are coming, our friend and farmerĀ Daryl Kuehne is bringing a ram for breeding and another ewe for wool and hopefully by Spring there will be some lambs for us. I think Maria will love lambing, I enjoyed it also.
We have to re-assemble our lambing equipment – syringes, lamps, pens, tail-dockers, iodine, vitamins, etc. – but we have time for that. Four ewes is a bit small for sheepherding, it speeds up the process and excites the dog – more like chasing than herding, we will be glad when the flock is replenished.
