Elsie is our Icelandic-Shetland cross. She and Hazel are half-sisters, on their Shetland side.

Elsie is a big girl, and she's quite the stunner. She's the second in command, after Sandy. She is very alert. Although generally friendly, she is hard to catch--not only is she fast, but she is strong as well.
Like everyone else so far, Elsie is almost three years-old. Last year, she gave birth to twins: a black ram (Pecan) and a mioget (light brown) ewe (Pistachio). She did a great job lambing, but she was a bit freaked out afterwards. It didn't help that Calico kept trying to steal her lambs.

Any guesses for Elsie? I think I can see a rounded belly under all that wool!
