My family used to have sheep also, and it's always fun to see pictures of them, the guard dogs, and the border collies!doublehphotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01633740191240984845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-337730997833058750.post-4688780018026664262011-10-11T18:43:42.990-06:002011-10-11T18:43:42.990-06:00I love reading your blog for this specific reason....I love reading your blog for this specific reason. I get to see a " behind the scenes" glimpse at what it is like to run a ranch. As a cook, it really makes me stop and think about what I serve to my clients.Aileennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-337730997833058750.post-26303511122332803182011-10-11T14:45:59.089-06:002011-10-11T14:45:59.089-06:00I agree!

I am proud to be a major contributor to our childrens' education in that regard (as my husband hunts and we butcher the meat ourselves). Yay for humanely raising animals!Tenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17922231337225142653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-337730997833058750.post-33822216598279835322011-10-10T23:17:03.646-06:002011-10-10T23:17:03.646-06:00Very well put.

They are so cute and helpless then. It helps me out when shipping time comes that they aren't so sweet looking anymore. I try to be objective about who we are keeping as a replacement ewe and don't look at who specifically has to get on the truck.Jenny Glenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04606055794620433163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-337730997833058750.post-32404999885397672992011-10-10T17:33:44.899-06:002011-10-10T17:33:44.899-06:00Very well said.

I have heard, do not complain about a farmer with your mouth full.<br /><br />Our fall crop of calves departed and it was bittersweet because there goes the young calf I bottle fed 'til her mom took her back.<br /><br />I learned the lesson early, growing up on a farm.
