My granddaughter and I went to visit a friend yesterday. She is the lady that I got my goats from, we stayed in touch and have become friends since then.
I love going to visit. She has goats, cows, chickens, rabbits, a pony and three sheep.
Two of her sheep are ready to lamb any day now.
The other sheep, I am sure thinks it is a dog.
It follows Marylou around and 'paws' at her for attention. It is cute watching her trying to get Marylou to give in and give her a few raisins that she knows are in her pocket.
I took a few pictures while I was there. Notice the tiny little legs on a very pregnant sheep!
