2024, Waiting on Lambs! 🤞 *Happy Thoughts* They're Here!😍

Here we don’t do anything other than be ready to evacuate. If it’s not hot the sheep are kept in the barn.

New hay coming tomorrow!

From the video it looks pretty close also looks like the wind is in your favor. I’d have my trailer backed up and ready to load, panels on either side.
IF YOU ARE WORRIED - watch close, pick an area if it gets to there load up and go.
If you think it could get to your house load up important things to you - photo albums, papers, etc. Also take a video walk through of the house and barn. Opening drawers etc.
sending best thoughts and prayers your way.

Also - paint mark large livestock so they can be identified as yours if they are left behind or escape. Phone number is best. Last name, initials etc. otherwise.

Wind knocked down a dying tree into the other partly dying curve tree, and the neighbor fence. Got it chopped up.
Then cleaned barn and 100 new bales came in.

The good stuff, for the ewes.

The weird stuff. It'll be fine for the Moos & ponies.


No lambs yet.

I take it you did not have to evacuate from the fire? Was waiting for an update. Nice to see things are normal over there.

No. They finally stopped progress around 10pm.

Still waiting on lambs
Moved a panning camera out under the hay shelter to better see.
Eating the new hay like crack. 😅

Had to save 2 dodos, twice. I think they were different sheep, idk. First ones, one was on the ground choking. 🙄 Took a bit to wiggle one out. These two got free on their own.

Some are aggressive with telling others to move!

Lambing Season has finally started!! 🥳

Ewe lamb! Great weight on her, got her warmed up, stripped out the plugs, they were difficult to remove. She's fed several times and I left them to bond.
Not sure if there's another, as the pup interrupted them.

People claim older lgd train younger, but that's not at all how I see it. He's protecting the lamb from a threat, the pup with no experience and thus the pup isn't acting properly. Not acting correctly = dangerous.

Great video! Protecting and teaching the youngster that's not how to treat a lamb. 👍 👍
