[Jacob-list] reading the clues

[Mary Hansson]

Hi,
 
I am out of town for a few days, so my husband is taking care of the sheep.  This is a man who can look at a lamb and see good or bad markings and know the kind of fleece I prefer.  The other evening, we needed to ID a sheep.  My first question to eliminate roughly 50% of the lambs was "which sex is it".  I thought that was a relatively simple question for a grown man.....who has watched the sheep now for 10 years plus.  His response..... "How do you tell?"  DEEP SIGH.  My sheep best fend for themselves!
