So happy 4th all my usa friends! Anything I can do to help my sheep be a bit calmer for the fireworks tomorrow night? My neighbors tend to go all out and we tested the waters tonight with a Roman candle (no sound really just colors and light) and they were not happy. They were in the corral...

hey guys, learning curve with sheep is steep. I'm learning a ton being here though. So I have been checking famacha score on all my sheep fairly regularly and up till last week never had an issue. My bottle baby ram started to get pail eyelids so decided to worm him (all the rest look good)...

so guy I'm not sure if i just have weird sheep or if these guys are on to something. They are let out into a 3 acre pasture every morning and put themselves up at night. Recently we had a nasty storm roll through that took down a tree and part of the fence with it. Luckily we found it before...

Daisy had a bouncing baby boy early this morning! I would have sworn there were two in there but seems to be a singleton.

We officially became sheep owners about a month ago. I always grew up with sheep but now I get a little flock of my own! I'm excited to learn more here. Definitely dove in head first with this because we got 6 ewes that were very close to lambing. So close in fact that one lambed less than 24...

I recently got a small flock of 6 dorpers who I was told are all expecting. One surprised the heck out of us with a lamb the morning after arriving but it's been almost a month and no other lambs yet. 3 look like they are going to pop any day but not real signs of impending labor. I guess I...
