The taming of the ram lamb............
He's a flighty creature. I don't think the folks where I got him spent much time around their sheep.
I started out just being in the stall - took a while for him to start eating. The last few days have led up to this ... I can sit in a chair and rest my feed on the pan. Tonight when I went to feed and put everyone away he came close enough to take alfalfa from my hand - close enough but didn't grab any. Making progress. Not making friends with him, but I want to be able to handle him without having rodeos.
and he sniffed my boot.
