I ordered the cookbook online at CafePress and received it today. Very quick
response. It is a very nice looking cookbook. We can hardly wait to try some
recipes. The pictures in it are great. I especially like the one of the ram
with the cat, very cute. My ewe does that to the little dog. Speaking of the
little dog. While I was at Cafe Press, I looked around at other Blackbelly
merchandise and found the doggie t-shirts with "I would rather be CHASING
Barbados Blackbelly Hair Sheep." I had to buy it for my little puppy. The
end of July I was given a 5-month old Pomeranian. She is the cutest thing, I
am not a small dog person but fell in love with her. She goes with me
outside and follows me all over. She was not afraid of going in with the
sheep and llamas. About 2 months ago I was washing my car, she was playing
in the spray. Next thing I know I hear her crying and crying. I go searching
for her and there she is in the sheep pen holding up one of her front paws.
Behind her a few yards are all 8 sheep, watching her. Took her to the vets
and she had 3 broken toes. She had to have surgery to put pins in 2 of them.
She is a bit leery of them now but still likes to go up to the fence and
watch them.
Our ram lamb that was born Father's day is smaller than any of the other
lambs now. I know Blackbellies are slow growing but could it be worms that
cause him not to grow as fast as the others? He was born big, my friend said
he was bigger than any lamb she has ever had at birth. Now he is smaller
than the ones that were born after him. Any suggestions??
Thank you,
Julie Riha
