I love that silver color. Mamma silver? Is she still that color?

Yup mama is silver. She came to me about 4 years ago - probably was about a year or less old. She's stayed that silver color - LOL and her name is Silver. Though if she doesn't "ewe up" and let the lil buggers nurse her name will change to Silver Auction.
Interesting how things change now that I'm not teaching herding lessons - she was a good "working sheep", but that "job" has been phased out and now the job is make lambs. Her job rating has gone from Good, to Below par.

I weighed 11 of the 12 lambs and let them roam the barn aisle for a bit.
So -- time for a photo dump!

I like to lounge on the cart - it comes with hay nibbles.

Ohhhh this braided hay twine feels so good....

Bet I can climb all the way into the hay bushel..............

Standing on the scale is no fun....................

Your barn has pavers for the floor? OK, I have some serious barn envy here! Please! Barn pictures!

I can say there's more "hay, grass & ??" at my back door & porch than that aisle

Congratulations on some very nice lambs. My silver lambs always faded to tan.

You all make me laugh! What a great way to start the morning - thank you!!
Yup the aisle has pavers and the stalls are foam covered with rubber "liner". DH likes to do a lot of research online, so he saw the pavers and stall system and said this is the way to do it. Who was I to say no?! . In all fairness, there were going to be horses as well. But the one loopety loo crazy and dangerous mare and I said - change of plans - no horses (damn and I love riding been doing that since I was 6) let's have more sheep.
I'll try to snag some pics today.

God knows all the crazies I've ridden. At least at 12 we all thought we were indestructible! In our prime, we all know better.
