I LOVE seeing these photos! Animals always make me happy. I raised goats, miniature cows, turkeys, guinneas, and chickens. But, I could never talk my husband into sheep. I can see why! They look like a lot of work!! But, they are so dang adorable!!!

They can definitely be a more intensive variety of livestock. Some farmers raise breeds that either don't grow a fleece at all (in warmer climates) or breeds that naturally shed their fuzz in the spring, much like a horse or dog would, so that removes the need for shearing from their program. But all the rest is the same! Fencing, lambing, feeding, protecting from predators, routine and emergency medical care, its all there, haha. Thanks for the visit :)
