Got a really nice rain yesterday morning. Got a smooth 1 1\/2″. Hadn’t had a rain like that in a long time. Coupled with all of the snow melt, we are plum muddy around here. Not complaining. Starting to see some life to wheat scattered around the area. <\/p>\n
We’ve got Dozer the Duroc showing at Woodward District today. Then he has an appointment Tuesday morning for his final show–at the Gage Locker. Goats show tomorrow. This should be a way, wicked wether show. Lots of good goats in this area. <\/p>\n
I sheared a couple of wethers yesterday, with several to do today. I look at a lot of sheared wethers and wonder how can somebody screw up shearing a goat? But most do. They leave skips, lines, hair in their arm pits, crotch, back of heads, etc. Some of them look like they used a hatchet to clip their goats. It’s like mowing the lawn, back and forth, don’t leave any skips. If you need to get out a weedeater to get in to tighter places, then use a smaller set of clippers. Pick a leg up and make places more accessible. Go over them numerous times to make sure that you blend lines and don’t leave skips. Have a light shining so that you can see what you are doing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
