Busy weekend

This weekend was the Hoosier Hills Fiber Fest.  Since I joined the Indiana Fiber Producers Association I went to help with that booth.  It was HOT for sure but Saturday was the worst.  Had a really good time but of course forgot to take pictures I did take my camera but never got it outta the car.  I ended up trading a Choc Giant cross buck for a French Angora doe.  The only French in the barn, and the only reason she is in the barn is because her color is fantastic!  I am really not sure what color she is and will try to post pics later.  I forgot to get them while I was out taking pics of the lambs.  I traded some yarns for some llama fiber, picked up a lap loom, and a drop spindle.  I have 2 ladies wanting to learn to use a spindle so now I can teach them easily.  Pam K has bought a Border/BFL lamb from the lady I got my Finn and Cormo crosses from.  She while I was helping her get her lamb I ended up buying another Finn Cormo cross ewe lamb.  Since I was in my SUV I had to put her in my back hatch.  It didn't take long as she was over the back seat then over the front and in the floor board in the passenger side.   The people working the drive through at Hardee's got quite a kick out of her.  Since I had to hauler her around in such a way I think I will name her Miss Daisy.  Like Driving Miss Daisy LOL.  Here is  a pic of her.  She is eating a blade of grass is why she looks so funny she really is not deformed or anything. 


 Dad mowed the pasture yesterday while I was out playing so now when you go out you can see the sheep so I got some updated pics of my lambs.

This is Truth black lamb in front and Victory who turned into a Moorit THANK YOU JESUS!!  The ewe behind them is their mother they are nearly as big as she is now.  She also gave me my favorite fleece fleece this year, I just got it washed.  My plans were to keep Truth for a ram but Dad really wants to buy a Cormo ram, and how do I argue with that?  Have you ever felt a Cormo's fleece?

Dorthy still not sold on her fleece will have to wait and see.  Ewe lambs wont be bred this fall so we got lots of time to see which way she goes. 

This little guy does not have a name because I know he wont be staying here. Him, Truth and Victory are always out.  Here is in the pasture with the horse and 2 steers.  God Bless and try and keep cool!
