NICE, following…

 

[BrahmerQueen]

I love the elements of the periodic table names!

 

[Margali]

Your herd size and organization always amazes me!

FINALLY got the sheep split up into their 3 breeding groups.
One ewe lost her tag, so she's kicked out with the non-breeders until I retag her.

0123, Riachu, is MIA. Will have to go searching for her. Not sure if she's just lost or a predator got her.


A few other lambs are still in the barn for awhile.

The three breeding groups.

Love that pic on the ridge

 

[secuono]

Got her tagged and in with her group. Ignore the wetness, hard as heck to catch this one!


Have seen some breeding since night one!

 

[secuono]

4 more days until....31 more days of breeding season! Heh.
One group is getting hay already. I think the others might start soon, too.
Still need to find more.
It's been freezing every night, but okay-ish during the day.

 

[Baymule]

Is there ever enough hay?
