Izzy has settled in easily. Chloe, the pony and the donkeys have stopped chasing her around, pegging her as an intruder. She runs with the flock, doesn’t give Red a hard time, ignores Fate. It is almost 100 degrees here today, and I hate to see her moving around unshorn. We hope to have a shearer here tomorrow or soon after, she will be around 30 pounds lighter.

There is a possibility we will be getting another sheep tomorrow, a white Romney, she’s supposed to be in rough shape. I might have to go out to the farm with Red to round her up. Izzy is a good easy sheep with beautiful wool. She is already letting Maria feed her  treats. She’ll be fine here. She and Zelda have bonded, they are pals.
