The spring/summer of '06 as well. Just market lambs for a year or so and then moved into breeding.

We've been raising sheep since 2000. Our first lambs were born in 2001.
I was born on a large ranch, my dad was a Veterinarian, so we had a herd of sheep as well as many other types of animals, some in large numbers. On my place ... about a quarter of a century... then sold out when the very bad wool prices , high sheering costs and cheap meat prices from imported Australian lamb made it economically unfeasable to make a profit.
