Weaning Day

Here's the nice before picture.  Everybody is happy & enjoying their hay. While they were eating, I made sure the yearling ewe pen was little-proofed. We didn't want any small holes for them to get out of. Then with some gate help from Fluffy Girl, I caught them & Camo Dad transferred them to their new home. 

It's hard to tell but they are NOT happy! The open mouths are crying babies. It's hard to imagine it from the video but within an hour they had settled down.  I moved them into the yearling ewe pen so they would have older company & it seems to have worked well. 

Here's a video so you can hear how mad they were! 


Then Fluffy Girl worked with Kenny practicing for the show ring.  He's been great to work with.  He's friendly yet respectful of your space. He will be for sale this year after the Missouri State Fair in August. Fluffy Girl wanted me to share a video of them working.
