Looks like we lost some great content with the move, but no time like the present to start fresh.
Our little farm...today is the first time I'm taking animals to market!
With my painted desert sheep, I'm trying to breed for trophy rams but I need more ewes.
I started with a flock of one ram with decent genetics and 3 ewes also from decent lineage.
We wound up with four lambs, but 3 were rams.
In the meantime, I purchased a true trophy ram lamb from great genetics, his name is Slow Hand as he shares a birthday with Eric Clapton.
Today I'm bringing the original ram, Gordon Whitefoot, and two of his offspring to market. All mainly white rams. Not much "paint" involved.
I have two mainly white ewes but it's highly likely both are pregnant, so I'm holding off and getting rid of them.
