I have discovered that I love Shetland Sheep. I started with my two boys-Marsh and Pooh.
They are hardy with wonderful fiber and besides that, they're cute.
So I went out and picked up a ewe. She should be bred to lamb in April. I've named her Barbara Ann.
No matter how I take her picture, it looks like her eyes are popping right out of her head. Kinda funny looking.
I know there are others out there who have Shetlands and was wondering if I could get any info on this breed. Should I vaccinate? How good are they at getting out of fences? ( I'm a goat person so this is an important one. :) )
Can't wait to shear and spin this fiber up.
