Cheviots(1)
Here's a picture of some of my Cheviots. All of the large sheep are two years of age or older. You can see the lamb in the center flailing its tail as it nurses from it's dam (mother).
Say goodbye to those tails, though! This was taken on the day I "ringed" the tails. This consists of putting a very stiff, and small, rubberband around the tail that eventually cuts off the circulation and causes the tail to fall off. THIS ISN'T CRUEL! See "Shearing at the Chandler farm Spring 2003" for a more in-depth explanation.
