Welcoming our new ewe

Today, Jamie and the kids went to pick up our new sheep, a CVM/Romeldale ewe named Francis.  She settled in quickly with our little herd (2 other sheep and a goat) and we hope that she has a nice long life with us on the farm producing lovely wool and healthy lambs.  We are having her sheered in a couple weeks with the others and will hopefully be breeding her in the fall for spring 2011 lambs.  Looking forward to it!
