That's really funny, poor pepper had her identity stolen. Now are you for sure pepper is the last one?

We have premier1 netting too. We have electronet 167' double spike for $135. Our old place was almost 100% clay and the new place is mostly sand...it worked fine in either as far as staying up(our critters pushed it over a lot because of fencer issues) We put in t-posts at all corners and used twine to hold tension on the fence because we go up/down hills, over bumps, and around trees/bushes. If you have a good fencer the livestock respect i don't think you will have any problems.

We went through all three groups this morning to make sure we haven't missed any more. :)

This morning I over seeded some Red River Crab grass on the paddock that we just moved the larger group of ewes off of. I'm going to pick up a load of lime this afternoon and get it broadcast if the rain will hold off long enough. Other than that, Teresa set up a target range so we can go out and do some hand gun practice.

I'm going out to do afternoon chores because we have to leave in an hour or so but Teresa is down at the shop watching Pepper since she hasn't witnessed any births of the lambs before. Peppers' water broke about twenty minutes ago and at least once lamb is started to poke its nose out.

I can't tell if she is finished or not but there is a long legged single so far.
