Shearing challenges

We have learned that it is hard to get a shearer in this area and is he ever busy. We have exchanged messages and brief conversations over the past 3-4 weeks, but the shearing is still not done. When he does arrive I will book him for next year.

As the days become warmer the animals remain in the barn where it is cooler during the day. They will feel better once the fleece is off.

We sprung for a shearing table to reduce stress on the animals and are anxious to put it to use.
