As the days are starting to get warmer it has come time to give the lambs their first hair (wool) cut. The lambs are for the most part 4 months old at this time. As a whole the flock is in great shape and have been very healthy. Outside of leading the critters around, feeding and cleaning the barn the jobs for the 4-H kids have been pretty easy. This week the work got a little harder, it's shearing time. With the help of Julie Tracy and the kid's parents we got the job done. From this point the lambs will get one final shearing right before the Lake County Fair at the end of July.
