She's not a milker, and I've only got one doe milking right now...only about a quart a day. Gonna miss the milk :(<br /><br />Lamb, I'm already missing the milk and we're not totally dried up yet. But won't miss milking when it's freezing outside.<br /><br />Ruth Dixon, I agree with you about stressing out about having someone else's animal here. I would check on him like fifty times a day to make sure he was still there. I can't imagine having to tell the owners that he escaped or got hurt or eaten by something!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14436557172029575513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-52281239899844040602013-12-03T22:23:48.036-06:002013-12-03T22:23:48.036-06:00We have a small flock of sheep, and did the rent-a...We have a small flock of sheep, and did the rent-a-ram thing, first year brought the ram here, stressed about something happening to him. Second year, took the ewes to the ram, the owners moved him out for a few weeks and didn't tell us, so babies were later than planned. So we bit the bullet and bought our own. Two years later, breeding is successful, just don't ever turn your back on him. He has no respect for personal space. I pack a squirt gun. Luckily, sheep boys don't smell as bad as goat boys. Stay safe from the weather.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-13601791852775998272013-12-03T19:34:02.456-06:002013-12-03T19:34:02.456-06:00We have gone the rent-a-buck way as well.
