So excited!
We put the deposits down today for the new ewe's we are getting, 2 Corridales. And the Ram comes on the 8th, he's a Columbia. We are awaiting delivery of the Columbia ewes, on the 20th!!
I'm going to cross the Corridales with the Columbia ram, and obviously use him to cover the Columbia ewe's.
On the wait list for a Rambouillet ram, maybe next year....they sure are hard to get a hold of out here...:hair

Congrats! Look forward to seeing the photos of your new sheep!

I'll have some starting in Dec, if you wanna make a road trip to Texas. I should have ~25 ewes lambing from Dec-March. You could take some nice ewes too, make a flock of it ;-)

Rambouillets???????????????????????????????????

 

[lexierowsell]

Why yes. Not registered, but nice sheep. Nice fleeces especially. Some are a little wild, but the lambs I've raised are the sweetest creatures on the planet. Big too. High parasite tolerance, grass only animals here.

ETA: will snap more pics this afternoon

Mr Washington, the daddy of all the rambo lambs coming this season

Waiting for melon. Most of these ewes are coming 2, and just bred this season.

Lexie, we need to talk.:grin:
As my DD is still just outside of San Antonio, it's not like I don't have an excuse to take a road trip.....

I'm in Salado. Might be interested myself. Except I'm on the golf course for the time being and they might frown on sheep. I already have chickens, ducks and rabbits lol. Not sure how much more my neighbors will tolerate.

Two of my spring wethers (far left and front) with their midget mama (middle). Dear sweet Martha, bless her tiny heart, will be here for life. She raises her babies just fine, has no trouble delivering tiny twins and growing them up!


The wethers from above. Grass only, mama raised. They're gonna be tasty!


Mr Washington himself, with two members of his harem, both two year olds bred for the first time this season. Due Jan (I think). Please ignore the wool everywhere, I didn't clean it up well after shearing .



More two year old maiden ewes. These girls come from nice lines, and are beautiful, feminine examples of the breed. Gorgeous fleeces, pretty heads... Just nice nice girls.
