Yesterday we sheared the goats 39 of them it made for a very long day but it is so good to be done. The first picture is the wool skirted, bagged and weighed now what to do with it. I may wash some this weekend then dye it but only if I get time.
Did you know if you want it to rain shear your goats they looked so cold this morning I gave them grain so they would run over to the feeders and warm up then we turned them out early so they would warm up on the grass. I have to re tag a few but I am still not sure which is the best way to go about it.
I have one goat that is going to kid this month she must have got bred when they arrived the boys and girls all traveled together.

You've been busy! Love the dyeing, the kids look great, and I love the new gate. Hockey is sooooo expensive. I don't know how parents do it. It's quite an accomplishment for him to be away playing hockey. Hope it goes well.
