Spent the last day of 2010 feeding and caring for all the stock, then skirted two fleeces and got one in the wash. Sheared Hershey, my brown BFL wether, he has not been feeling well and was not eating today. After shearing I let him out in the yard to graze, he only picked at what little grass is out there. Nothing is coming out of him, even though he is drinking alot of water. I drenched him with apple cider vinegar, probiotics, thiamin and some Banamine for pain. He has always been a pet, and is my favorite colored fleece to spin and knit. His twin Cocoa is not friendly but has the same fleece. Some sheep are special and form a bond with their shepherd, others are just sheep, but you care for them all the same. |
