The Spring Lamb Show

The kids have to show the lambs in the spring show, in order to sell them at the fair. This year was a little more hectic then before. We have shown 3 lambs for a few years now. This year we had to show 6 lambs. So that means 3 more lambs that need sheered and cared for. It took Shane a few extra nights to get them all done. He does a good job though. Feeding is a little more complicated then the other years. We have decide to feed each lamb individually, as of before we just feed them all together. So depending on how much they weigh depends on how much they get feed. We have a couple of smaller ones, we are having to push them to get them to make weight by fair time. So this year at the Spring Show we were so excited for Nikkelle because she got Reserved Showmanship. We were all surprised because she basically hates doing this. But I guess she really knows how to act like she is really interested in what she is doing. Good Job Nikki. Kaitlyn did a really awesome job too being her first year. Her lamb was not cooperating it kept jumping up on her. Which is weird because she is always out in the pen, petting her lamb and trying to make her be friendly. She made it in the top 10 for Showmanship out of about 30-40 kids showing lambs in her age group. We are so proud of her, keep up the good work and maybe you will win at the fair show. Here are some pictures of the show and just pictures of the lambs and kids. I never got a picture of Kinyon , I will have to take a picture of him helping feed the lambs.
