And The Wait is Over

Meet little Willie. He is 3/4 Lincoln and 1/4 Romney. He really had a tough time coming into the world. His mom prolapsed a week before he was born. Laura from Psalm 23 farms came over at 9:00 at night and put her uterus back in and put a harness on her. She has been such a help.I sometimes wonder what I would do if she wasn't so close. I have 3 more sheep to go and then it will be over.After reading all the other blogs and hearing of all the rams verses ewes this year I sure hope I have some ewe lambs. I had the rest of the herd sheared on Wednesday and will try to post some pictures to introduce you to my outside family.I'm still trying to figure out how to get things to go where I want on this blog thing.

Still waiting

Still waiting for the babies. I thought they would come last week end but nothing.They sure are getting wide.I had the ladies sheared last week by Peter Halm. He is the head coach at Lakeland Collage.Peter and his dad do blade shearing at Old World Wisconsin in the spring.

Ladies in waiting

Time is getting very near for lambing. I bred two of my Lincolns and one of the Romney girls. I also bred a little mixed ewe with the Lincoln ram. I can't wait to see what she gives me. Jennifer the white Lincoln is due the end of this month. Her lambs are sold. The dark Lincoln and Callie the Romney are both due the end of next month. I'm happy to say that their lambs are sold to. Good for me. Last year I had so many lambs I felt over whelmed so this year I only bred a few.
