The sheep have to generate a certain amount of income in order for us to get "farm deferral" on our property taxes. A large-enough flock can generate that through fleece sales alone, but not enough to help much with their expenses (mainly hay). If I ever want cute lambs to enjoy while striving to improve my flock, then I have to be willing to sell animals. If I produce lambs and never sell any, I become a hoarder who cannot provide sufficiently for my charges. So I have to make the hard choices....Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-54807860490184356142015-06-05T12:23:08.472-07:002015-06-05T12:23:08.472-07:00Oh my.

As hard as the good byes must be knowing that it takes a bit of pressure off is a good thing.
