Chores

Yesterday we did CDT shots and ear tags on the lambs and wormed the flock.  Also had the opportunity to evaluate some of the lambs we are considering putting on the sale list.

Waiting their turn


We get weights on the sheep.  The crate idea was discarded shortly after this photo and we resorted to just having Will hold them and stand on the scale.

Went with yellow for this years group of lambs

Rich gives the shots and wormer.  He also does a close scrutiny of fleece and health


Good records are a blessing after the job is done.

I am the sheep grabber.  Invented three new curse words while doing this job yesterday.

Hannah was the record keeper.

Me chillin with my girl Pearl.

Enjoyed helping out, and seeing how much those lambs have grown in the 7 weeks since I was last there. Of course getting some 'hands on' the potential future flock stars in terms of excellent fleeces was great too.
