Shearing Goats - Emily and Mo Freckles



Yippee! I am happy to report that the arduous task of shearing our herd is finally done. Okay, so we only have two goats but it was still difficult. Linda and I started to shear Mo Freckles a few weeks ago - we got about 1/3 of him done and had to quit. Then it rained, and life happened and it rained some more... Linda came over last week to "help me". I held the goats while she operated the scissors.... After all, she has experience shearing her own sheep, so she's naturally better at shearing a goat than I am. So, you ask, just how long did it take to shear 2 goats? Well, about 3 weeks!!
