SAFF sheep show
All 3 girls showed sheep on Sunday. They did great. The girls are such a natural when it comes to showing. When you show wool sheep you don't wash them or sheer them. You do trim the fuzzies around the face and bottom. The judge comes and ask you about your sheep, you have to open the sheep's mouth, and set up your sheep by the way the judge is looking at you. Jenna placed 5th, Tori placed 3rd, and Sam placed 2nd in the spring lamb natural fine wool class. In the fleece fine wool class Jenna placed 4th, Tori placed 3rd, and Sam placed 2nd. In the fleece class the judge is looking only at the wool on your sheep. For the fine wool spring class the judge is looking at you, the sheep's body and it's wool. Sunday's show class is harder because they are showing with adults as well as kids (open), unlike Saturday's show where you show just JR's (kids). This is a harder show for the wool because these people come for the wool and live for the wool. The wooly bullies are looked over so much..when the judge came by to look at Sam's and Tori's sheep they use a flashlight to look at the layers. Jenna had a slight problem during the fleece show her sheep, LuLu did not want to walk or stand, she sat for the judging. Donny and Dusty went to GA for Dusty to ride in the World NHA. So, Ho and I had to take the sheep home. Have you ever seen sheep in a cage in a motorcycle trailer? How about being pulled with a wrangler jeep? We always do things different!
