Well, I must have the noisy sheep of all. Mine love to talk! my husnband
says it gets so annoying!. If I have a ewe that is given a little extra when
she is alone. she then comes to the fence and cries everytime someone goes
out. She wan't a bottle baby either She now has 6wk old twins and when she
sees us she cries. Needless to say the rest of the heard will here her make
that special sound which means shes gonna get something and boom! They all
come running! Most all of my bottle babies will cry out when I am out or if
its time to be fed. I have 2 now that you can set a clock by that are 2
months old. 6:30 am, 12:30 and then at 7pm. And if I don't do it right then
they will scream till I do. Weaning is going to be a chore this time! But I
love them. The talkers as I call them are all very people social sheep
whiich alot of my others aren't. They will even ba back when spoken too when
I walk in the feild with them at my side. My husband says I must be half
sheep myself I spend so much time with them. I have had bottle babies catch
a cold from me in the past. So everyone be aware with the flue and cold
season coming round. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL ! Nancy
