| Challis x Bug ram |
Challis is gernerally pretty wild and sticks to herself, but now that her lambs are here, she ubber quiet and very content. There's so many things that I like about this ewe, but the first thing that struck me about her was her structure, she has a leg in all 4 corners and properly proportioned...not too small, not too large and has good fleece to boot. Her fantastic mothering ability is just another reason to pass along her genetics. Thank you to Lori of Sommarang Farm for allowing me to lease her.
Everyday is a gift from God.

Ooo Challis has a nice fleece too! (All of Lori's fleeces that I have seen are really nice.) No fair that you have spot though!! I have only had four spotted lambs and three ended up going to market for various reasons including poor fleece. Now if only Gilroy throws some spots for me... (Unfortunately the one spotted girl was got when my rams took a trip down the road to visit the girls.)
ReplyDeleteI will cross my fingers that Gilroy works his magic on your girls.
DeleteThey are wonderful Kelly! Spots just add that extra dimension of delight, don't they.
ReplyDeleteThank you and yes, I love the spots as well.
DeleteLove the spots! Great looking lambs!
