The Romney Posse

I call them the Romney posse, our new unit of Romney wool sheep – Izzy on the left, Griselle out front, Rosemary to the right, Biddy in the rear. A lot of beautiful wool. The Romney posse keeps to itself, but moves with the other sheep. They are still challenging Red, butting and charging him sometimes.

He is handling it. It will take a week or so before they form a unit, and at least that long before they are dog broke, and follow orders from the border collie.  We’re glad to have them here, there is no sign of fence-jumping. Other than butting the dog, they are good citizens of the farm.
