The candidate

I've put it off long enough, this little guy was the first kid to be shorn. Evan was here to help me get started, if it wasn't for him I probably wouldn't have started. He caught Blazer's buck kid and had him on the trimming stand waiting for me. He also trimmed his hooves and I found out he is an excellent hoof trimmer. Now if I can get him here more often, there are many more to trim. We got 3 kids shorn and our noses were full of mohair fuzz and had to head to the shower. It's time to get the deed done. This is also the busiest time of year for fall harvesting and processing fiber for fall shows. The local art festival is just days away, as usual I am working on scarves and yarn at the last minute. The daylight hours are getting shorter and I'm not able to get everything done before dark so I am keeping a lot of late night hours.
