Ashton Homestead

I need to tell you guys about this rabbit mid haircut. This was Will’s BOSB buck from convention. He got 2 more BOSB’s on Saturday at Wooster. He decided he’d had enough of that and grew a va**na Saturday night. Sunday he was a SHE! He was for sale. Was. I’m a little more patient on my does, and hard up for does, so Abe is now Abeliene and will be staying. She just needs to grow into her big girl shoes (I give my giants a full 2 years to make weight). And also, I like her butt.

Nefeli (F3) will be looking for a new pasture later this fall after the Valais show in PA.

Well today has been a day for the boys!! Nick had junior champion Corriedale ewe and junior champion fleece and Will had junior champion white longwool ram (we missed the junior fleece class)! They will be in the Supreme drives tomorrow. My rams were sheared too late, but my ewes were 5th and 6th out of 19 yearlings and first place pair of ewes. After lunch we will show the black BFLs and end the day with Richards Scottie’s.

I did say I run out black wool the fastest!! 2 rams and a ewe for Blondie (her sister Blackie had the 3 earlier this week).

It’s her bottle baby now
