From what you have posted you sound overwhelmed. You have two little ones and another on the way and you run a farm. From my perspective you have way to much going on. I have three kids, now 16, 12 and 10 but when they were little I was able to stay home with them and I found that overwhelming. I can't imagine how I would have managed if I had had to work at that time. I think the previous poster has a good point. Keep your flock but keep it small until your kids are a bit older. Then you can go in the direction you would like.<br />I hope things work out and try not to be too hard on yourself you are doing a lot.<br />HugsJohannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11505670295868283874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936976925449679441.post-23902358676666618422010-10-24T07:34:17.488-03:002010-10-24T07:34:17.488-03:00Posted at 10:53 PM- you must have been too full of...Posted at 10:53 PM- you must have been too full of doubts to sleep. The people who were selling the lamb at the market were either sleeping at that time since the had spent yesterday getting ready and were up at the screeches of dawn or else they were frantically trying to get caught up on chores and other jobs or perhaps cuddling kids who were missing them.Another marketing option is to sell the ram lambs,but keep the ewe lambs a bit longer and sell them as breeders. But keep your flock small until your own 2- legged lambies are in school....Advice from and old,old shepherd......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
