Oh my goodness, do I ever ramble and repeat myself! Grab your wool and a cup of coffee (tea)...
It's breeding season here at the farm. Rams (males) are together with the ewes (females) and if things go as planned, we'll be having lambs born April or May, when green grass has started growing! But what happens when things don't work out? When an animal doesn't live up to expectations or is causing problems for other reasons? Do you have a plan in place for dealing with these situations? We aren't raising pets here, but even if we were, what do we need to prepare for if a sheep has to leave the farm for any reason?
If you don't want to watch me and the sheep discuss what to do when problems arise, that section begins around the 8 minute mark. You can skip ahead to minute 27 or so, when we start the knitting and spinning talk. There's plenty of inspired fiber, yarn related memories and some thoughts about the appreciation of winter time.
As always, all opinions about how to handle and care for the flock of sheep are my own and not meant to replace any professional or personal mentors you may have for your own situations. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
