Mini Cows?

Nope, that is Inga, one of our Shetlands, who survived her very first shearing today! Inga was a fighter, whereas Iona had a good time licking dirt off the fence when it was her turn.

I helped by trying to keep the girls calm and moving sheared wool out of the way for our awesome shearer, Leslie! While Roberto documented the whole experience on video and photo.

Claire and Astrid say to Inga: “Hmmmm…you don’t look as big as you used to! MEHEHEHEHEHEHEEEEEEEEEEE!”

      Kelly, it is SOOOOO hot here today – in the 90′s! I can’t even imagine how uncomfortable they would have been with all that wool on!

  2. Inga does look kinda cute. And smaller too. Amazing what a difference in size without all the fur. Big day for the girls!!

  3. They are so cute! Cute AND useful. :-)
