As the seasons change there is new life everywhere... emerging from the earth, tree limbs and oh yes, Momma animals! The Lord has mightily blessed us with each ewe bringing a new lamb into the herd. At a time when many other conventional sheep breeders in the Pacific NW are sadly losing lambs and sheep to 'unexplainable' losses (there is thought that over working and 'super bugs' are to blame), we count it a great opportunity to naturally husband our Lord's creation and reap the blessed reward. We have beautiful, colorful healthy lambs bouncing around so eager to make their mark on the new world around them.
We are enjoying the moments we get to watch them romp and play with one another in the 'dry paddock' with the tree rounds and branches to jump on and off; as well as the neighbor's healthy pasture they nibble with their Mommas. They are learning to observe the other animals and sometimes when the curiosity is too much, they find those 'lower' than them can be moved...
The herd has grown so well and we have decided that we will keep just a select few. If you are looking for a fine fibered friend of your own, please consider these beautiful Finn/Shetland cross and you can add your own heritage breed fiber producers to a homestead plan - just send us an email!
