2020, Waiting on Lambs!

If she fits, buyer will take Tatiana's eweling, too!
Hoping she fits!
46.36 pounds.
A near 6hr drive awaits them.
Love my sheep buyers! They come from all over!

Fixed the mower!
1.5hrs later, got a bunch of weeds mowed down!
Need to go back out with my scythe & get the milkweed.

Both mutt ewes left to their new home!
Deposit for the ramling confirmed. She'll be back in 7~ weeks for him.

Now to wean & schedule pickups for the rest of the lambs!

Two of Periwinkle's lambs got dewormed, couldn't catch the 3rd, but she didn't look wormy, so it should be fine until I can catch her by chance on another day.

9 lambs have left.
How many to go? Gotta check...

If I build another paddock or two, I can wean a few lambs. Unfortunately, I don't have space to wean them otherwise, unless they are being picked up the following week.

102 can wean tomorrow.
110 can wean on the 12th.
120 can wean on the 20th. Above three are going to same buyer.

104 can wean for pickup. Waiting on email to see if buyer wants to take him home before CoR arrives or wait.

105 can wean for pickup. Buyer will pickup in June~.

119 can wean for pickup.
128 can wean on the 22nd. Above two are going to the same buyer.

122 can wean for pickup. Waiting on email to see if buyer wants to take him home before CoR arrives or wait.

126 can wean on June 19th.


So, if paddock was built already, 5 would move tomorrow. Seems like I gotta get one up and fast!


That doesn't include the 8 lambs that I'm keeping! Ramling will be weaned, but the ewelings will stay with moms.

And there's still one eweling on the fence, since I still haven't decided between 108 or 109. Dewormed 109, the bottle baby, needed it. If she loses the wormy gut, I'll keep her.
Doesn't look like I had lined up a buyer for the one I wouldn't pick, so need to go back over wait list & then people who have been messaging me to see if anyone wants her.

I feel like quitting all fiber related things, which means selling all equipment and loom tools, processed fibers, so on.
Don't think I'll sell the fiber sheep, will just never keep any more fleeces nor lambs.
None of the yarns sold, still working on other fleeces. And I'm tired of it, its stressing me out.

Its still so cold, nothing is growing well. Ugh, its really ruining my mood. Seems like others have noticed the crap weather is a month behind, too.
Hurry up, warm weather! The winter gloom needs to go!

May have a home for that left over eweling, possible trade.
Still waiting on Hirola to lamb.

Two rams in weaning pen. So much quieter having them back there!

Paddock change. Yesterday, technically.

Trying to get this little guy a bit comfortable with people.
