It's soon Fall! pt1

Can you believe it, that it's Fall already! I sure can't. Where did the summer go? We were so busy that it slipped right by. 


      This fall we are expanding our flock to one more ewe. We have 2 right now,   which one is my In-Laws. So we are adding to our one sheep. My daughter wants to start showing at the fairs next year. She was given the chance at the 4-h fair to show her goat, she enjoyed it that much, she wants to do sheep next. With expanding ours by one we will hopefully have 2 lambs born this Feb. There are chances we could have twins with either one. 


 That would be an awesome surprise. Sure can't wait. This will all happen on October 12, that is when all the sheep will be taken to a friends house to be bred with the ram. 


     Last year we tried to have baby lambs. We were able to borrow a ram from a friend but unfortunately they were to young and it was passed their breeding cycle. 

            Yes it was a great disappointment, but we survived. Made it through and ready for this year.
