What shape are your sheep?

ewewin — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 02:13:27 +0000

The best shape for grazing? rectangular! Show animals are high on leg and tubular in body- but long legs just mean long necks (or they can’t reach the forages). There are a lot of articles, and Gerald Fry has made a name for himself studying the efficiencies of grazing animals. It turns out- the “folk art” pictures had it right- large rectangular bodies, short legs, short necks.

Nothing like a home grown meal- but if you can’t grow all of it yourself, we would be happy to supply you with the lamb.

Time to manage the pastures

Babies Abound

I love spring- lambs, chicks, puppies. Today I found a kitten (although not on our farm thankfully). I do love babies! Spring 2011 I hope we have a calf.
