Just got a call this evening. The girls should be sheared and ready for the farm this weekend! It's exciting news. And a little scary.
We think we're ready. We've done the reading, joined online forums that talk about all things Shetland sheep, and have a small home and paddock ready. We've chosen six ewes from an exceptional established flock, and we have an amazing mentor.
But there's still so much to learn and experience. So much. That's the scary part.
Yet anything worth doing can a little scary at first. Sheep are no different. We're not experts, but we're quick learners, and we're good problem solvers. We'll undoubtedly run into bumps as we travel this new road, but we can do this.
Yes. We're ready.
