Let me catch my breath!
Life's a flurry blur as I attempt to juggle work and farm responsibilities, and breeding has added to the pile, but my ram Ted is quite the gentleman, and so easy to work with.
I'm excited to see the new lambs this coming spring. I have two ewes of my own bred, and two ewes which I've sold [one bred, and one not].
Yes, since purchasing two new Navajo-Churro ewe lambs this fall, and already having 4 other ewes...I felt I needed to do something to help keep my numbers in check. A shepherdess in LA is buying Roseee, and Daizeee.
So, the only other new news right now is...I have some raw fleeces for sale, as well as new roving which arrived in the past month.
Here is what I call....'Spinner's Mix'
It's a combination of HEAVILY SKIRTED raw wool from:
Daizeee (Polypay X), Roseee (N-Churro), Putteee (my Teeswater X wether lamb), & rambouillet. Daizeee's and Roseee's wool is extra short because it's only 4 months growth as opposed to 6 months (long story short....I needed to take advantage of a shearing opportunity, so I did). Yeah!
