Ginger, ewe with hurt leg, had twins yesterday morning. Both white, a ram and a ewe. 87.5% eligible for registration at 1year old after they pass the hair coat test. For lambs born in winter, they will be fuzzy at a year old, so will have to wait for second summer, about 1 1/2 years old...

I got new tools yesterday! My old battery drill and circle saw have given up, so I got a Dewalt battery drill, impact and circle saw I'm ready to rock and roll again!

Scrapie is a serious sheep disease, no treatment, no cure, highly contagious. They itch and scratch themselves on anything they can find. They get put down. By quarantine and killing the infected, it has been brought under control for many years. Every now and then one pops up and is quickly...

Fancy had a single, black ewe yesterday, December 20, 2025. Of course she is beautiful and soooo cute! This ewe is third generation, 87.5% and will be eligible for full registration after she turns 1 year old and passes the hair coat test. Looking at Fancy, I may have to go to the fourth...

Busy morning! I had to leave at 8:00 and pickup my sister in law to get her to physical therapy by 9:00. I was doing chores and there was Mango with a lamb! I didn’t have time to deal with her, so I shut her up in the small night one, right where she was. I shut the other ewes out of the...

I went to the Sheriffs pancake supper last night. Took my new neighbor Catherine, from Switzerland. Met a couple I met there last year, they are from Miami and they brought their neighbor Dave. We all had a rip roaring good time. Donations are accepted, at the end of the school year, any...

I have 4 or 5 more ewes to lamb in the middle field. They are due now or soon. I think I have 19 in the front field to lamb, from now through February. Lamb explosion!

Lambing started December 5, Sugar had a single ram. Big healthy boy, Sugar is a good momma. As I was moving Sugar, I saw Cleopatra, also of Texas 5 White Dorper fame, laying out in the field like a beached whale, giving birth. She had a single, up and fumbling for a teat. Nose and toes...

I was called in for jury duty Monday, I was chosen. It was a Capital Murder case. We had to be there at 7:45, I had to leave my house at 7. That meant that I was out in the dark doing chores. It was so foggy Tuesday morning that my headlight only went out 2-3 feet in front of me. I got lost. In...
