Say hello to the new addition to our herd! (Right to left) Mikey, Noel, and Flora have come to us via a local farm.
Funny story: These sheep are proof that the world is in fact a small one. Whitt and Martha had a fairly substantial mob many years ago, however when raising four girls became the main priority the flock was considerably downsized. Now, years later, it turns out that these three sheep are descendants of the original flock that was parceled out! Their parents and grandparents used to live here! How wild is that?
We'll be using these sheep for their wool. Martha spins the wool and has a couple different sized looms for weaving rugs, blankets, things of that nature. We will also use the lambs for meat.
Stay tuned for updates on these guys! They have had a very warm welcoming so far!
Aslan seems pleased after the first "meet'n greet."
