The other reason was to just keep my best sheep and find some outstanding rams to improve my herd. If I'm going to breed shetlands, they are going to be good ones. lol (that's the plan anyway)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966566655228721549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864357576913587868.post-14862168324910544212010-07-20T12:32:53.576-05:002010-07-20T12:32:53.576-05:00I had to go "that" route for my ram Brav...I had to go "that" route for my ram Braveheart this year for the first time, and HATED doing it. Right now I'm down to one wethered lamb for sale, and his dam could also go if I found a buyer (the ram lamb I have advertised has a fiber pet home once wethered). Finding GOOD homes is the one thing that makes me pause before breeding season -- I don't want to produce more lambs than I can place!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864357576913587868.post-521159752257427382010-07-20T11:28:00.061-05:002010-07-20T11:28:00.061-05:00I can not believe it's been 30 yrs!

I try not to think about it too much. :D<br />Got both my "boys" home now, time for the long wait until next year's lambs, I'm so excited, it's going to be tough. <br />I see you have a few boys for sale, I have 3 left to sell, all polled carriers, 2 black and 1 moorit. Two boys that aren't good enough to be registered, so off to the "you know what" for them. Hate that part of the process. I got lucky last year and found pet homes for everyone.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966566655228721549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864357576913587868.post-61052943435669485922010-07-09T16:17:49.503-05:002010-07-09T16:17:49.503-05:00Another member of the class of '80 here, but N...Another member of the class of '80 here, but Nebraska is much too far away to be attending any reunions....Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.com
