[Jacob-list] Picture perfect farm!

[Betty Berlenbach]

Yeah, I've wondered that about Royal's sheep lined up like that for years.  Funny, I never thought to ask him!  Great photo, for sure.  And, in real life, his farm IS that gorgeous!  Inside and out...

I'm jealous of all you folks with lambs on the ground...Guess I'll be last as usual, but I keep reminding myself, it's by choice...it's much nicer out there at the end of March, beginning of April, than in Feb. or early March...It's warm today, 31, and sleeting, snowing earlier, snow tomorrow, they say, and 16 or so overnight, I think I remember...but infinitely better than the 0 or -5 in Feb.!  Another week or so and I ought to be seeing some lambs.  Can't wait.  Then, I'll have to get LInda to update my website, too, since I'm computer illiterate when it comes to websites!  www.maplehilljacobs.com.   I'll have to correct the home page, for I sold all the shetlands, and post photos of the cute little Nigerian Dwarf Goaties, not to mention the lambs.  I'm tired even thinking about it, even though I don't have to do the work.

   I just had to tell Royal, that I clicked on his website and was completely captured by that beautiful picture of his farm. It looks like something out of Currier & Ives!! All of you have some amazing farms and sheep. I love visiting all your sites. And Royal, how did you get those sheep to line up for you, or did you paste all their pics together??? lol Anyway, I enjoyed my online visit to your farm. After seeing all your sites, I realize how out of date my site is. Guess I'd better get to work.

  We're finally lambing here in Kansas. The boy - girl odds aren't going well, with 3 rams & 0 ewes so far. I'm beginning to think there is something in the water, because we have had 2 sets of twin goat kids and they are all boys too! One more full Jacob ewe to lamb and 2 Jacob/ Katadin X ewes also. We're praying for girls!!!

  I've posted new pics of our lambs and goat kids (have to get a pic of the lamb born yesterday) on our site. I really enjoy this time of year, lots of babies to hug and watch play! The ram lamb that was born yesterday, amazed me by running right up to me and introducing himself. Most stay close to Mom and I have to catch them to do my inspection & navel care, but this little fella seems to have a very out going personality. Not sure if that will be a good thing down the road???

  Happy lambing to everyone!
