Shearing Day 2015

Feldspar's before
Feldspar's after (with a nervous Pecan)

Peat's before, with Professional Small Sheep Catcher

Peat's after.  He's such a gorgeous color of grey!

Chert is a lovely dark chocolate brown color.

Marble and Sandy think white (and white-ish) are good colors, too.

Some pregnant bellies! 
As soon as the last sheep was sheared it started to rain.  By late evening, it was storming and now the pasture looks like this:


See the tree stump?  A cedar tree fell into the road (not the fence--whew) and the chicken coop lost its top again.  Since the chickens don't sleep in it anymore, it's going to be moving out of the field today.  Add that to the other post-shearing and lambing stuff we need to do today, and it's going to be another very busy day.
