Our irrigation ditch is turning off this Saturday, August 2nd. We’ve been moving sheep to get them closer to the house. That way, we can more easily haul water to them if necessary. We do have a pond that holds water, and the adult rams have access to it in the lower pear orchard pasture. That pasture is pretty close to our predator zone, so it’s not as suitable for ewes with lambs.
The lambs will get their second vaccinations this coming week, and we’ll be weaning the ram lambs soon, too. They’re already acting quite precocious. We don’t want any oopsie lambs come February, so it’s high time they’re separated from their moms!
Our Italian Sausage sale is off, and we’ve started a new sale on loin chops in both 6-pack and 4-pack configurations. If you’d like to add some to your freezer while they’re on sale, consider visiting our store!
