Such a thick boy.

All 18 are tagged n banded. Addie & Latte were let out. Majin will be let out into barn tomorrow.
11 left!

She looks more like a Babydoll than Cheviot/BFL! Even smaller like them, too. A crisp white, but I can still see the other breeds in her. I wonder if her wool will be nice or if she'll move on to another farm.

He was out cold, haha

Triplets meeting some rams.

The 4 tagged and about to be let out.

Majin fleece.

Noticed that one of Latte's ramlings has a white tail! No headspot, though.

He needs snuggles so fluffy

I think I won't be breeding Tatiana & Majin again. People claim they want a fun fiber sheep, but no one ever buys.
I'll be keeping Tatiana's black with lots of head white eweling as a fiber ewe, but she'll also not be bred.

I have a few ramlings in mind that'll probably end up dinner in 2021. A few I want sold as at least pet wethers. Will be chock full of meat for years to come already!
For some reason, it feels wrong to butcher perfectly fine ewelings...so, I won't be doing that.


First two lambs officially for sale of 2020!

Two fiber mutt ewelings can be picked up in roughly 6-7wks. Culpeper county.

Working on updating the website again today & have contacted a few people on the waiting list. Unfortunately, most want ewes...

Let Majin & her lamb out.

Juliana is lambing!
Bred to Michaelis. Codon RR, dual.

Majin out.

Rest pigging out.

Juliana had a small ramling & then a larger eweling.
Will cross her to a spotted ram this autumn, since her grandmother(Patchie) gave me a spotted this year.
I'll sell this eweling & keep one of the triplets instead(both sired by Michaelis). Will keep a spotted eweling, if she has one, next year or either way an eweling in hopes of it carrying the spotting gene.
