What type of feed do you all feed your sheep?
And when I do feed a grain, I usually just buy a bag of "all stock" from my local feed store.
Some feed stores also carry what they call a 1/3 blend.
It's pretty cheap and it has no copper in it.
I know people that just feed cracked corn as treats.
 
A few pics of some of my babies born last week.



Sister and brother. Brother was kneeling here.







My little chocolate girl.






This mom only had a single girl.
Most of the others had twins.






These two brother/sister were only a couple hours old here.





Momma kept losing this little girl cuz she was always hiding in the bushes while mom went out to graze.

 
absolutely adorable babies!!!!!!!!!!
you know I have many many kinds of animals but you just can't help but feel a special bond with the sheep!
They come running when they see my car after work, if I am doing something outside they want to be right in the middle of it! They come find me and try to include me in their game of tag, and the looks on their faces when I catch them messin' around where they aren't suppose to be is priceless!
I think they truely love me (yeah yeah so I'm nuts, what of it!) they love me even when it's NOT dinner time and they don't ask me to buy them things!
