In northern california, we had a couple of freak weeks where we hit around 79*F in the daytime, and still got frost in the morning. Now it's raining and there's also a cold front with frosty mornings.
Marley my oldest sire has prematurely shed almost all his winter coat already and we are still having freezing mornings around here. He barely has 1/2" long hair on 90% of his body. A couple weeks ago he had a few small bald spots which grew in. They are predicting light snow in the San Francisco area valley for the first time in decades tonite. Has anyone ever successfully made a horse-blanket kind of poncho thing for a blackbelly before? I'd love to hear how you did it. _MWS _______________________________________________ This message is from the Blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
