Great excitement over the weekend as Lena picked out her lambs for her 4-H Market Lamb project. These lovely ladies are making themselves at home in a pen in the barn… getting used to Lena and their surroundings. They sure were noisy for a couple days. So far, their names are Princess and Cinderella, but that is subject to change at any time.
The resident, handspinning shepherdess/s are having a hard time adjusting to the fact that these lambs are 3+ months old and their wool is only about an inch long… very different from our long-wool beauties.
We are trying to convince Lena to be a guest blogger this summer, chronicling her first 4-H lamb experiences. So keep your fingers crossed and stay tuned for her adventures.
Oh yes, do tell Lena to be a guest blogger. BTW, if you'll send me a private message with your contact information, I'll send Lena a "showing sheep" book…still in the wrapper! I was going through some boxes and found it and wondered to whom it belonged. As I've never shown sheep, it doesn't need to stay here -grin-.
But, since you don't know me, if you'd rather not, I understand.
Thank you so much Sandra!! Just sent you the info
