| Lambs on the Loose @ Wild Rose Farm! |
We were out shopping and had just come down the driveway … Hey! What are those sheep doing under the cherry trees?!? Mr. Wild Rose Farm walked up & into the barn to get some feed while I stayed out here to head off anyone who might break in this direction. I needn't have worried. The lambs scampered back in through their gate into the pen. It's where they were safe & where they get fed! By the time I got my cell phone out to take a picture, you can see the last lamb just outside of the gate heading in to safety … Whew. We've had the donkey loose on the lawn before, but never any sheep. And of course, the donkey thinks it's a game, high steps, and kicks her heels when you try to catch her, lol.

| Rambouillet Ram Lamb Turned in With Breeding Ewes |
Breeding season started here on November 26th. We turned a young Dorset ram in with the Dorset & crossbred ewes. We also turned in this triplet registered Rambouillet ram in with a separate group of Rambouillet ewes. The ewes know where to go and had headed down the runway, but the ram turned back around to look at me … not sure of what was up! You can just see the green marking paint on his chest. As of today about 1/2 to 2/3rds of all the ewes are marked.
