Evening Parting Shots ....

Ewes Munching Fresh Hay in Mixing Pen Feed Racks

Here are a couple of shots from the shed roof side of the barn, aka the "mixing pen". Lambs & ewes go over here once they are bonded and moved out of their lambing pen. These feed racks are a great addition to the barn. We had a chance to buy some sturdy used galvanized equipment last fall from another local farmer … very nice and they are set up as a divider.

Wild Rose Farm Lambs Resting in Mixing Pen

Right at their feet, off to the side is a group of lambs resting in a sunny area. Just back in now from a pasture check, all is quiet for the evening. We had a hard freeze last night … even caused the rhubarb flower stems to flop over (got to get those cut off anyway!). And yes, there was a dusting of snow on the roof. Pretty late for snow around here!
