The Drama Escalates

Most of the older ewes have moved into the back pasture with Gunpowder.  Henrietta is taking a year off, staying in the front field with all the lambs.  Guess who's standing at the gate, baaing at the other sheep all day?  Henrietta, Acorn, and Cashew.  None of the sheep have been baaing back at them, but Sally has been mooing in response. 


Filly, who was quite attached to her mother, is handling the change well.  Peanut and Pistachio are fine, too.


 Pecan and Almond were not happy campers during the actual relocation, but they are moving on with their lives. 


Meanwhile in the back field...

Gunpowder was very excited to meet the ewes.  He chased them around on the first night, but he seems to have figured out that chasing might not be the best way to go.

Gunpowder and Elvira make a lovely couple.  Hopefully, there will be some cute lambs as a result.


Elvira doesn't want to share him.  She's telling Czadas to stay away from him....

  1. Ok, I have to laugh at little Czadas squaring off against another ewe! She's always been spunky, would even turn around and run after our herding dog sometimes. She's little, but mighty! Your flock looks beautiful!
