Yummy!<BR/><BR/>I'll have to go back in your archives and read more about what has been happening with Butter. But why is her fleece not salvageable?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your pretty sheep faces.<BR/><BR/>~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-36893654658558674602009-02-16T15:26:00.000-08:002009-02-16T15:26:00.000-08:00Great photos Michelle.

Actually, it has worked for ALL my sheep's names except for Valentine and Blanche, because they are the only sheep names I've had that aren't two syllables.

This is how Shetlands were done originally, on the Shetland Isles. Without a cut end, the fleece is supposed to be softer, too.<BR/><BR/>As for Braveheart's nose, rams in "rut" - at least the Shetlands I've seen - get a swelling about mid-muzzle.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-2928329766830061802009-02-15T17:06:00.000-08:002009-02-15T17:06:00.000-08:00I giggled at Dinah's curl, too.
