I know what ya mean, between the maremma's shedding and all the sheep hair laying around it looks like a sheep exploded or something. some of mine have shed off slick as a button and some still have hunks of hair hanging on. I sit on a bucket in the barn yard and pull wool as they come up to visit. have to say some of them appreciate it more than others.

Haha, places in our yard look like we had a pillow fight. I just pluck Trip instead of brush him. The sheep-not so much. They don't like it.

I have a brown ewe just like yours, named Lily. She is a FF and had a pretty half white, half black single ewe lamb. I love your pretty speckledy little ewe lamb!

alright, do youall want to see more cuteness than should be allowed by law? ask yourselves, whats wrong with this picture. that old biddie has 12 baby ducks under her. or under her and on her as the case may be. what a good mama she is.
drum roll please.......... today is the first day that marco has been turned loose on the whole 60 acres with the goats and sheep. he stayed with everyone but came in the back way instead of thru the alley way with everyone else. I was really nervous but said a little prayer and opened the gate for everyone to go out. gotta trust him sometime. he is turning into a good dog.

cntryboy she is a dark Cornish. I got a few couple of years ago to try experimenting with crossing them with rir's to make a big large breasted meat bird. she is a setting fool and a really good mama. I have 4 young roosters growing out now and they look really good. we'll see how they do at butchering time.
