Working the Woods, Again

As we try to stretch as long as we can to allow the pastures to rebound from the drought, the sheep work the woods like pros.

Cubby is back! Nice intro by the way, gave me a good laugh.

Cubby is doing great. Just weaned him last week.

Oh the sheep must have had a lot of fun in the Woods. The donkeys are super cute too. Especially how one sticks out its tongue at 19:38 😂

[@stillwatersfarmtn]

She’s funny! 😂

Love getting the sheep in the woods. Tough to get back there but they love it.

[@stillwatersfarmtn]

Yes, they do! It’s amazing how well they clean it up. Not quite as thorough as goats, but not far off.

I'm just about to let our girls out into our woods. I'm only going to give them about 100 square yards at a time and they've got 40 acres to chew through. 😃

[@stillwatersfarmtn]

They do a great job for us! Not as veracious as goats, but they do pretty good.

@@stillwatersfarmtn To me it looked like they do good enough. Now Y'All might be able to get into it to at least start clearing some of the dead downfalls. Don't know how much time you have to spend on it,but you can at least start.

@tritchie6272, yep. Having them work out there the last couple of years has made a huge difference. Before, it was almost impassable in many places. I don’t have a lot of time but this makes it possible to be effective when I do.
