You just reaffirmed for me why I love my sheep! :lol:

We've gotten 4 inches of rain here, still falling. The weather man forecasted another 4 inches.....

I think she loves her sheep because they AREN'T destructive... They're real cute too. :)

So I got to feeling sorry for the destructive little bast... Anyway... As I was saying... Feeling sorry for them. So I went and bought a 4x8sheet of PT plywood and completely blocked off the back opening (up wind) with the 1/2 tarp pulled down over the plywood, outside. I also bought more wood chips and replaced their interior "floor" covering. They better thank me with doelings and lots of fresh milk when the time comes!

Yeah, with all the water they could soak up with their fleece, you could take and scrub the walls with them. Hehe.:plbb

they aren't wooly sheep, they're hair sheep! And they have sense enough to go in their shelter and huddle up together. No divas in my flock! They don't tear things up either.....with their "cute" personalities.... :gig

I did not know that. LOL! My goats only peep their heads out if it is doing anything more that a mist. Although I might pour some shampoo on my buck and chain him out in the rain. :lol: He urinates on his beard and front legs.

We bathed our buck last summer! The kids got the biggest kick out of it! King, not so much! Lol
