Wednesday I received the call that my husbands cousin found us a ewe. He thinks she will do just fine for us. They estimating that she is about 2 years old. Never been breed before, which is a little concerning though, but we will see what happens. We think she is a Sufflolk breed. It will be hard to know. Wednesday night we took Jerry our boer goat (a 4-h project for this year) to the farm so he could take hime to work with him the next day. That way they can weigh him and figure out a price for me. Then subtract the ewe cost and I pay the difference. After work on Thursday he brought his Billy goat and my ewe to the farm. All we had to do was pick her up and bring her home.
It is a ewe...lol... that isn't an extra package there. They must of missed that area when shearing.
She weighs 140lbs and she is a bit taller then our Southdown ewe. I would like to know what you think about her. Comment on facebook please.
Still trying to come up with a name, any ideas? I thought of Birdie or Mabel, Emma thinks Jane, Abby thinks Sarah.
