Her personality was so small and puny, that she became Sweet Unit. Their lambs were Beany and Cecil. Beany went on to become The Great Lambini because he could escape from anything. I would awaken in the morning to the sound of bleating which would tell me immediately that the Great Lambini had done it again. Sure enough. He would be capering across the front lawn while the flock pressed their noses to the fencing.pattyhttp://www.bonusgreatdanes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-66839401998739427952010-05-04T14:55:51.044-05:002010-05-04T14:55:51.044-05:00what about Nancy it is such a sweet name. i love i...what about Nancy it is such a sweet name. i love it <3Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-32721973278012129252009-08-14T06:14:56.369-05:002009-08-14T06:14:56.369-05:00if it was a boy i would so call it ringo baaah!!

She is a cross between a Montadale ewe and a Southdown ram. She is currently pregnant, and is due around Easter '08. I was thinking of naming her lamb(s) Peep (which could be for either gender) or Rebaa (for a female). I'm not sure, though. Any of which you could use :) We also had a pet sheep, he was her half brother, and was a wether. We named him "Little Mr. Stud Muffin," although he wasn't able to produce any offspring of his own :P He went to the market because he was a male (I have no power over my neighbor, which is where my sheep lives).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-35127368128606878892008-02-27T16:33:00.000-06:002008-02-27T16:33:00.000-06:00i say a mikal!!!!!!i say a mikal!!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-403926866101944442007-12-06T19:29:00.000-06:002007-12-06T19:29:00.000-06:00LUANNE or BettyLUANNE or BettyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-49801080278477753742007-12-04T21:31:00.000-06:002007-12-04T21:31:00.000-06:00I live on a sheep farm and i have a sheep that loo...I live on a sheep farm and i have a sheep that looks exactly like her.

Their is a infinite amount of skill necessary to produce a happy ewe. So while Bubba has been stuffing his face with copious amounts of chocolate hazelnut cupcakes*(He posted a picture of the cupcakes.Did he send you any Farm girl? NOOoooooo..... Who do you think is going to eat all of those? He's a greedy little bugger!) I have been busy sharpening my sheep raising skills.<BR/> 1.SHEEP SHEARING..I have spent the last 2 weeks growing out the hair on my legs. Using my husbands beard trimmer I have been practicing my shearing skills. I have done quite well. No second cuts, and I only nicked my fetlock once(thats sheep talk for ankle).<BR/>2.DETERMINING THE AGE OF SHEEP...Since I am a barmaid, I no longer ask for I.D. to determine that a person is 21. I now pry open their mouths and look for wear patterns on their teeth.<BR/>3.CHECKING FOR SUITABILITY OF A FLOCK SIRE...Now when a date comes to pick up my lovely daughter,I feel their hair for crimp and fineness. I also check for proper confirmation by making the young man jog back and forth in the kitchen. Of course I check for proper muscle tone:)<BR/>4.CASTRATING...Any date not suitable for future son in law is quickly dealt with. This would be any that have purple hair,body piercings,tattoos,or a tee shirt that says I love to party.I am quite handy with a elasticator.<BR/>5.TAGGING SHEEP...Last night while my husband slept,I ear tagged him. Have you ever seen a grown man cry? From now on he is to be reffered to as sheep number 165.<BR/>6.SHEEP DOG...Every good shepherd needs a proper sheep dog. Unfortunately all I have available is a very fluffy american eskimo. Not a problem. Please see #1. A little shearing and some carefully applied black spots I cut out of post it notes, and now I have a very good likeness of a border collie. He hasnt herded anything yet, but he did growl at me.<BR/><BR/>I am the shepherd.I also will not bathe for three more days so I can become accustomed to the smell of my charge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1129573028567792082005-10-17T13:17:00.000-05:002005-10-17T13:17:00.000-05:00Kitchenmage, do I personally believe Guinevere (if...Kitchenmage, do I personally believe Guinevere (if indeed she ever existed) was responsible for the downfall of the Round Table? Do I personally even care if she had relations with Lancelot? Of course not, on both counts. Unfortunately, some writers throughout history (see links in my previous entry) have apparently made such accusations. I'm just sharing what I read. My only concern is that our beloved Yellow 21 (aka Pepato) be named after a figure whose name is clouded in controversy;)<BR/><BR/>Although Pepato is of course my favorite name, I thought our nice little ewe might like to consider being named <I>Ewe</I>nice after a favorite character Eunice from the old Carol Burnett Show. Since the name is pronounced Yoo-niss, it could also be referring to this lovely sheep's existential ewe-ness. Greek in origin, the name means "<A HREF="http://www.thinkbabynames.com/name/0/Eunice" REL="nofollow">she conquers</A>." Wow!<BR/><BR/>Or, in the name of randomness, name Yellow 21 after my current Blogger word verification "Coletta." (I had to share that I actually got a female name as a word verification. I usually get unpronouncable things like xrlljqg).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1129562344173777072005-10-17T10:19:00.000-05:002005-10-17T10:19:00.000-05:00Liselotte wasn't kidding.

She very well could be a fine lady who's grandmother gave her this somewhat pretty danish name when she first layed eyes on her.But I have my suspicions about her.The internet provides great anonymity to the user. For all we know, her or his real name is Bubba(notice the B).He most likly came up with the Liselotte name from a learn to talk danish web site.Bubba's blog site is just a ploy.He figures if he waves a cupcake covered banner in front of you, you will cave in.I bet he cant even bake a good cupcake! I have also heard that the correct translation of Liselotte is "DANG HE'S UGLY".Farm girl, do not be fooled. I on the other hand am a sheep hugging, food blog loving,one mother of a cupcake baking fool! Being a farmer you know that lice and sheep are never a good thing.Its just plain gross.When you think of the name I have chosen, it brings all kinds of wonderful thoughts to your mind.MARZIPAN,MARZIPAN,MARZIPAN....make it your mantra. Marzipan is also more in keeping with your other pets names. Well I have to go now. I have to whip up a batch of double chocolate chunk cupcake batter for OL' LICE A LOT to drown her sorrows in. It's nothing personal Bubba. Alls fair in love and sheep wars.<BR/><BR/>P.S What do think about MARASCHINO for a sheep name? The more I say it,the more I like it.Please enter this name also.
