Sunny day



A sunny day enjoyed by all on the farm.I needed to go to town and pick up supplies, but I wasn't going to waste a day like today running around.I finished cleaning up behind the old calf barn, that felt good, then moved the shearing stand and started trimming feet on the buck kids.It's amazing how much hooves can grow in 2-3 months.Looked at their fleeces to see who would be a buck prospect and who will be a wether, some of them fooled me, some are better than I thought earlier and some are not.I like for a buck to be 2-3 years old before I decide how good he is, unfortunately I can't keep them all that long. Last year I wethered one of the best bucks I have ever had, well, now he is the best wether I have ever had.I make mistakes all the time, and sometimes I can't see the forrest for the trees, but I try hard to be the best I can be.
