Broken Back Farm

It’s sure been a busy day up here at the Big E!

You can find our flock of show sheep right in the Mallory Building until next Wednesday before they get to go home.

Today at 1:30pm we showed in some competitive classes, I’ll do another post for that later, but our highlight Regina, Sr ewe lamb won first in her division and went on to bring us Reserve Champion Ewe of the Open Shetland Show!!

AND

Today only we are in the CT Building!!! We’re here until 9- plenty of time to swing by and say hi! Connecticut Building-Big E

Remember that ewe we took down to Louisville KY 🚙this past November to show at the 💥North American International Livestock Exposition💥? The one who was the first to walk on the green 💚shavings from our very own homegrown flock? The one who placed 6th in the yearling ewe class? The one who we had ultrasounded while there and came up open still?

Welp, apparently she just needed her show clothes on at home to whooo her a date! Yesterday we welcomed in Lisa’s first ewe lamb!! Lisa herself was a bottle baby so we were a little skeptical on how she’d do with a lamb…. She is taking motherhood in like a Shetland champ!

2 just became 4 for the day! Welcoming in Raven and Fern; the first boy and girl set of twins and they’re almost solid black
