Isn't she BLUE-TIFUL???? We have two BFL ewes now - I have learned this wonderful pattern is called 'English Blue' - teardrops, and then they have a silver saddle which in the goat world I'd call a 'belt'!
More on these girls as time permits!

Notes for Fiber Sheep Show
New things I've learned this week - thanks to Oogie McGuire and others from her black welsh yahoo list -
- DO NOT wash your sheep for a fiber show. At most, use a cloth and water to wipe dust off.
- DO NOT card your sheep out
- DO use a cut side of an onion to shine hooves and horns without getting oils in the fleece
- DO cover your sheep
- Burrs come out fairly easily when crushed!
