[Jacob-list] training horns

[Linda Bjarkman]

I probably should have titled my email "inadvertently training horns."  I was not 
trying to alter the horn growth, just keep Isa Dumb Belle, from spending her days 
stuck in the fence.  I'm abit upset with myself for possibly changing her growth 
whether for the better or the worse.  I don't believe that horns should be trained.  
Isabelle is staying in my flock, so I'll have a chance to watch the growth from now 
on.

I haven't had my coffee yet this morning and I read Mary Ellen post rather 
blurry-eyed and took it to say that the ewe's horns weren't forward anymore after 
she died.  Tough fix, there :-)  Well, it did wake me up!
