Proud to say all three of these ribbon winning projects at Fiber Fusion contain Shetland wool from our farm! 🥰

I've been frazzled and my phone camera is decrepit. But how could I not post the year's first QUEENLE for Michael Gates , Susan Hirshberg , and other fans? For any of you new to the game, spot the honey bee queen on the frame in this photo! I'll put the answer in the comments.

Started pullets, Novogens, looking for a new flock. These are excellent brown egg layers. Seven each, or ninety if you take all 15.

First-time mom Kokoro closes the lambing season with twins, a black ram and a moorit ewe. The little gal is one of the tiniest lambs I have ever seen, but she seems healthy. 😊 Her name is Miniko (so we can call her Mini).

I'm way behind on lamb intros! My excuse is that the weather has been gloomy, but today was dreamy. Here are Cindi and her ewe lamb, Mindi enjoying some sun!

One of today's challenges could be called "Queenle when it counts"! Dividing a hive means you must locate Mom, no excuses. And it's easier on one side of one frame than both sides of 27 frames 😆.

Annual "chicken is bigger than lambs" shot. They are a week old and standing on a railroad tie, but he's still taller! 😆

Good old Bambi had twins late last night...twin ewes, nice glossy black ones! They are already braving the weather this morning.
