Kitty & Mountain Lion - Let's Stay Out Here - It's Way Too Busy In The Barn! |
It started out with nothing happening at the 5AM pasture check ... there were no lambs born yesterday either. Mr. WRF said, "I get the feeling that we're going to suddenly end up with a pile of lambs.". Guess what's happened since he made that comment?
3 sets of twins at 8AM, 11AM, & Noon. One of the older ewes, #39, was trying to steal newborn lambs from a younger ewe. Then her water broke & now she's in labor. Since she was so interested in those lambs, we let her follow that little family as we brought them up to the barn. Ha! We outsmarted that sheep ...
Meanwhile, I'm working on fleeces for the
Waynesburg Sheep & Fiber Fest next weekend. Here is a special request Suffolk fleece from a nearby farm --- we don't have that breed of sheep here at Wild Rose Farm.
