The sheep are in the south pasture again. Stuff they left last time looks interesting now. We've also started to feed hay in the barn feeders at night so they have something to munch on if it's too hot to graze much during the day or pickings are too sparse. It's leftover hay from last year.... we'd really like not to dip into this year's hay since it doesn't look like second cutting is going to happen. We should have juuuussst enough of the first cutting to get us through a normal winter.
Since the pasture isn't green and yummy the trek out of the barn in the morning is a sedate affair and the girls were easily distracted by me standing by the fence.
How many sheep do you have now? I so wish i knew a good rain dance, we are dry here in Western MA too.
ReplyDeleteLet's say "a few" more than 130. (wink, wink)

ReplyDeleteWe're having downpours every other day, at least, in Savannah GA. I'd be glad to send you some rain, and about 10°F too.
ReplyDeleteWe're already hitting over 90 so I think you can keep the extra 10 degrees, thanks. haha
DeleteOn an unrelsted matter, I've used your kate during Tour de Fleece, and it works great. No tangled singles.
ReplyDeleteSuper! So glad to hear. Feel free to post pics on Nistock Farms facebook page. We'd love to see your spinning!
