Ewes in the Yard

Andy bought 2010 ewe lamb #24 from Edith. He’s going to use her for breeding his future lamb stock. Edith said she is well built for breeding. She’ll be the black sheep in the flock.

100_8097 They are getting wide and their udders are filling. They have some grazing in the barnyard and we let them have access to behind the chain link. We hope they’ll eat up some of the weeds there.

  2. Very Cool, fat ewes! This is good. I guess it was up to someone to bring in the black sheep of the family.
