May be nice today

This is one of the nicest days we have had this year.

Watching the weather forecast you wouldn't have thought it 

would have been.  But I have been out rearranging the 

lamb creep feed area, enlarging it and took quite a few 

pictures today with the girls out on pasture.

 Earlier this morning I had to catch this ewe lamb.

I've been watching her change color.  She was born moorit or appeared so.

Now at six weeks old today she has the copper look that a mioget 

gets.  It is hard to see in this photo, but when light shines on

a mioget's face you can see the color of copper reflected in the hair follice.

Here she is again.  Her Dam, Olivia is a mioget also.

 #192 Thea got a trim today, she was "in the rise" at shearing which 

makes it harder for the shearer to get the fleece off.  He either has to shear above 

or below the rise to get it off.

So it makes for a messy cut.

Much better looking now, sporting a new coat 

for a clean fleece.

I didn't think to take a photo of my creep feed area, behind this ewe.

I've extended it the width of the barn 32 feet by 8 feet.

We have 54 lambs that need access to a space where they

can eat their grain without being pushed out by the adults.

Getting Photo bombed...

Enjoy your day!
