Just checking in here quickly to share a couple of photos. Life has been pretty busy lately, and I ended up sick again for about a week :(
Spring has certainly sprung here, and I thought it might be fun for you to see what we do to roo the sheep - our sheep are pretty small, and I can handle the yearlings on my own. This is a picture of Yadira, partway through the process. You can see the area that has been roo-ed is darker, over her front leg. The roo-ing process allows me to pull most of the wool, leaving the hair behind. The roo-ed wool has almost no kemp in it, either.
And because he is so lovely, a picture of the ever-curious Yves.
Hope all is well wherever you are,
Lisa
