Our new Romney Izzy went off to the shearer today, Jay Bridge (and Maria) picked her up and put her in Jay’s truck, they went off to his farm, where his sheep are being shorn today. Red did his usual stellar job pushing Izzy into the small stall so Jay could grab her and get her to his truck. Red is worth his weight in gold. We put Fate in the back area where she shrieked and screamed.

Izzy will be back in a day or so, a light lighter and more comfortable. We are still talking about the other Romney, a white ewe, but the people who have her say they have not been able to catch her over the past two days. They know where she is, but not reachable.

They are asking if Red and I can come and round her up, they say she is a bit of a mess. We’ll be glad to go help round her up, she also needs to be shorn and cleaned up, especially in this heat.
