Sheep Smell Bad

I don't know if any of you have lived in close proximity to sheep but I'm here to tell you they stink. Horses poop all over the place but their poop doesn't smell anywhere near as bad. We are working to move the little lambs to their very own pasture. Lisa worked on the electrified wire and Andy and I worked on the sheep shed.


Lynne came down with Andy this time. They put a plank walk out to the barn through the mud. Yes, the mud has returned.


Heidi came over to lick the Kia. The smelly dorpers.

Andy mowed the front part of the sheep pasture while I cut the wire and re-stretched it.

Andy was coming around to fling debris on me.

Hanging the beams on the sheep shed. Andy broke the tractor, he fixed it too.

We got the roof on. We need more nails and plywood to do the walls. The opening will be on the high end. The other walls will be enclosed.


The vet said that sheep only have teeth on the bottom jaw which seemed weird. But when they graze you can see them lifting their heads to bite.

  1. Very nice shed for the smelly sheep. Will it have a deodorizer? :-)

    Andy is down there a lot, is he going to move there? :-) He really seems to like it there! It is a beautiful area.
