Sylvius
I've never seen this many spots on a dairy cross. What a cutie.

003 Juliet
Just because she's pretty. She reminds me a lot of one of our first ewes back in 1999.

DWB Touchstone
4 days old - Twin
KRK 1068 Ben-Hur x DWB 10A Parsley

DWB Jaques

Jaques again.
His markings are just so cute! I love the look of the muscling on him too.

I'll catch up with the news when I can. We still have half of our ewes to lamb.

Those Photos I Promised

So...these are the pictures I sized down a month ago or so...

Louis

Pig or sheep?
Aravis

How handsome is my Louis?

Leipzig
Katahdin/Dairy Cross

Leipzig again.
Meaty!

The Senior Ewes in Pasture

Run for your lives!

Our two of our oldest ewes...Aravis and the new gal, Athens.

Dotty...the yearling that raised twins.

Cool pic

And this is the new gal from KRK that came from Montana.
She's just weaned off her lambs, so she's a bit thin, but she's gained some weight and lost some of that scraggly hair since this picture. She raised triplets this year and quads last!
Now officially the oldest sheep on site, besides Louis.
