Week of the 25th is gonna be busy!

Shearing day, blood draws on 23 of the sheep a few days later, then some other unrelated things mixed in between.

Hope i can figure out how to pull blood...

First 3 times is really hard..... after that, easy!

It is all about being able to "see" with your fingers!

Watch a bunch of you tube videos.

Lucia and twins were let out today.

Last of the group.


Still waiting on the 3 mature sheep. They're taking their sweet time.

Yup, one got stuck already in the sheep panel. Not this one, though.


And Lucia looks like a soggy, sad bear-dog.

Patchie & triplets.

Kicked rams out of a paddock, locked the 1st one and let the moms n lambs into the 2nd paddock the rams were moved out of.

Moved the older LGD in with them and younger in temporarily for practice.

Got two more troughs for hay and water for them, too.
Moos moved to arena & easement. Also got a new trough for hay. Trying to ease them into living out on 20acres & not as big babies...
Thin moms dewormed 2 days ago.
First CDT shots for lambs tomorrow or Sunday.

I'm hoping it's easier than I think it is. Certainly looks easy, but doing it alone will be a crapshoot.
