New Things

The ewes received a new feeder this weekend.  While it was being constructed, I kept the ewes busy with treats.  Snow ate out of my hand for the first time, and once she started, she kept trying all the snacks.

I started by handing out corn rather than peanuts, and a different crowd surrounded me than usual.

Too Much Excitement

The ewes enjoyed a special snack last night.  I hoped to take a lot of good pictures...but the ewes were so excited that they were a little too close.  I only managed a few successful pictures.  

Gingerale tries to push through the crowd.

Elsie pretends she is not interested in the snack.

Although there's not much happening right now, in the next few weeks things will be busier.  The ewes will be back in their coats, the breeding rams will be put in with their ewes, a few of the sheep will be sheared at the Fulton Fall Folk Festival.
