Busy days

Been a busy three days, knew it would be when it warmed up. Finished shearing all the sheep Sunday, had to fetch the sheep from the mother-in-law farm and that was no easy task. Dollie, the crazy Pyrenees has been chasing the sheep away from the barn, making the sheep crazy, normally, they follow me on the trailer, not anymore.
Had three hens to hatch chicks, this poor hen and one of her sisters hatched within hours of each other, she only got 3 chicks, her sister stole some of hers and ended up with seven.Another sister hatched eight yesterday,she accidentally left one behind in the nest on the other side of the barn, nothing to do but tear a board off the barn so she could find that chick, I'm sure it will grow up to be a rooster. Look closely at the picture, there are 3 chicks hidden under her body. Reminds me of that magazine I got sometimes as a kid, Highlights,(had to ask Alex the name of that one), where you find the hidden items.
