New Sheep Year

Thought I'd start out the new sheep year with the new blog since my webmaster/brother is working full-time plus taking college courses so this is a convenient way to send updates of what is happening on the farm to fellow shepherds, customers, friends, and family. The rams have been out of the breeding pastures for a little over a week so we start a new cycle. On duty were 3 Clun rams, all F1 sons from imported semen from 2 lines; "Beechtree Glen Roth", the yearling Bluefaced Leicester who we hope to get some fabulous Clun Mules from; and "Sulley" 1/2 British Suffolk ram lamb from Muleflock with light duty to complete the 3rd tier of lambs for us. Also new as of today is a freshly clean sheep shed going into winter (great to see concrete floor again). Thanks Jim!

  1. Any chance Jim could head this way with his barn floor finding equipment?
