New Rambos!

Happy New Year!

Two new Rambo’s in residence!  Greener Pastures Revel, an American Soay Sheep out of Phalen blood line.  He is pictured in front – get a load of those WIDE horns.    The second ram is Greener Pastures Allegro, a British Soay Sheep out of the Aphrodite line.  It’s hard to tell from picture, but I believe he is pictured at the upper left corner, in the back.

Many thanks to Ronda  – she makes a really great spicy plum sauce that was fab on the Christmas ham!

An old favorite; I think the second from the right is a grey Fjord!

Enjoy!

New ewes

I just obtained two new Soay ewes that I’m pleased with.  Peony Creek Maia and Peony Creek Spring, both are mouflon (wild) colored, with  tiny scurred (almost polled) horns.   Both are 2005 models that are sired by Greener Pastures Jerry Garcia.  Jerry Garcia is a MacRae bloodline  ram with nice horns.   I’m looking at charts and bloodlines of my own breeding rams, trying to decide which would work the best in the next couple of weeks.   Many thanks to Nancy W. and Shannon M. in helping facilitate the move and transfer.  The ewes are settling in well and seem to be doing fine.
