It's probably about 2 months now since I told you I had got my 2 Black Bellied ewes. (not pure bred I am told)

I just never seemed to get the time to post pictures. Here they are meet Coco and Coffee, they were about 4.5 months old when I got them so maybe about 6 months old now.

It was a litle disconcerting at first, because I wasn't having all the problems, I had had with the goats. They are so easy to look after.

They took a little time to get used to me, they had been used to running with a large herd. They are more friendly now, still a little skittish, but getting there.

I don't know if they will ever be as friendly as the goats, but we will see, I will keep trying.

I love my sheepies. :love

They are beautiful girls. I have never had goats but I was surprised at how easy my sheep were to take care of once I got them home. I had no idea I'd love them so much. Enjoy them.

They are very cute. At first glance they look a lot like my LaMancha Goat. With ears added :)

Cuties!! They are amazingly easy to care for, aren't they? I was surprised as well, after being warned by all the old sheep farmers that lambs come out, shake their heads...and start looking around for ways to die.
