Isn’t she cute? Hay sticking out of her mouth looks like cat whiskers.

Run a black head Dorper ram through the flock. When mixed, the Dorper color gets spotty.

Yes, she is adorable. I would have trouble selling a ewe that produced a pair of nice lambs like that. But we are not constricted with the numbers like so many are.

@Kusanar , I noticed your area and have thought that once I get my life into some sense of normal, that I would pm you and maybe we could meet sometime. With the ankle replacement, then the buying the house and all the things that have needed doing, besides all the normal day to day farming stuff, this year has been ....um....interesting.... not to mention the insanity of the virus and all that has entailed. Been wanting to make a trip and meet up with @Mini Horses too one of these days.

Her mother is short in length and small. Not what I want in the flock. Her grandmother is one of my original ewes, named Ewenique. Ewenique is a big pet, always twins, is a good mother and I have kept ewes from her. But with the exception of her, her descendants are all going to auction. The ewes I have kept from her were not sired by Ringo. If Ewenique has nice ewe lambs from Ringo, I may keep them. She herself will not ever leave, she has a soft spot in my heart. Even though this ewe lamb is sired by Ringo, I will not keep her. I have made my decision to cull and cull hard, take them to auction and buy better quality registered ewes. I'm keeping 4, maybe 5.
