What an autumn and winter we had! In addition to the severe weather, it was tough recovering from three sheep losses to bears in October. We lost our faithful wether, Blackjack, a brand new ram, Honor, and our precious triplet ewe, Shyla. We had to scramble to get Zuzu out of the breeding area; she and Shyla had been up there with our breeding ram, Sherpa, and we didn't want to lose her, also. Thinking we would have no lambs this year, we were pleasantly surprised to discover Zuzu's udder filling last week. Zuzu delivered a healthy, 8-lb ram lamb yesterday, whom we're calling Zephyr. Welcome a new life after tragedy!
