Afternoon Graze

The sheep will not be shorn for a few weeks, the shearer is coming to the June Open House. They tend to graze quickly in the sun, and go into the pole barn to get some shade in this heat. We let the animals graze in the side pasture for a few hours in the morning, and a few more in the afternoon.

Red is looking good after his laser treatment Friday and Fate had her tongue hanging off of the ground after running in 90 degree heat. The sheep pay no attention to her, so they don’t get worn out, but I cut the running short and we brought out her wading pool, which she jumped in to get cool.
