PETA is at it again!! They posted another photo of a toy sheep with blood, saying " leave sheep alone". First photo is from PETA, second is of one of my rams being shorn, and third is what happens if you "leave sheep alone."

Meet the new farm dog! Blakely came through a rescue but was a direct re-home from her owner. She is a purebred Pembroke Corgi, 3 years old, spayed and vaccinated. We are still having issues with the chickens. I'm not sure if that will ever resolve! She loves the hose, mud, tugging rope, and her stuffies. She is sweet as can be a definitely wants to herd everything! :)

The great grandma pen. WSR Juju, in the front, is 15, WSR Shannan, on the right, is 14, and PM Butterfly is 11. All gummers who have given me lambs and fleeces for many years and now live in luxury retirement, in the barn.

Chantilly Honor. One of two ewes that brought Emsket into my flock. She had a long journey from Kentucky, to Ohio, to Illinois, then on to Washington State. She is 10 now but still in good condition!

Peaceful Mountain 'Hopper'. White Pine Qatana X Peaceful Mountain 'Bishop". Hopefully this ram lamb will stay true black, have a good temperament, good horns, good conformation, meet breed standard, and have a fantastic fleece. A lot to ask from a little guy!

The last lamb born here to PM Ember. A big single ewe lamb with the same exact markings that Ember has. I'm keeping her to see if she will stay true black and not a fading black. Meet Cinder.

White Pine Qatana had a classic easy Shetland birth, on the 22nd, everything on a text book perfect time schedule, with no issues at all. She has only ever had single lambs for me and always white. I had believed she was heterozygous for white. This last year I bred her to a black ram. I have seen Shetland breeders breed white to black before. I'm not sure why but I tried it, and look what I got!! So Qatana was hiding solid under her white!! He is black, very black! If he looks like he is going to stay that color, not fade, and if his horns look good, then he is exactly what I'm looking for to keep the true black, intensity, and color, in my flock. He's a healthy fellow, bouncing around and nursing like crazy! Good job Qatana!!

Selkie did not have an easy birth at all for her first-time lambing. I was up with her all night and she was not progressing like she should have been so I pulled the lamb in the morning. A great big single ram lamb, born on June 19th. Mom and lamb are doing well. 🙂 He has already escaped his pen and was running around the barn!
