Life on a Sheep Farm!

After seeing Christchuch, four of us got in a van to go visit a sheep farm.


Yes, there were goats too!

I was surprsed to see brown sheep!
They had a 3 legged sheep dog.  He was injured in a farming accident.
See how different the colour is down near the skin
Lots of wool!
Sheep shearing boots so they don't slip aroud.  The farmer sheared the sheep which I recorded.
The finished product.  They do everything at this farm -wash the wool, card the wool, spin the 
Wool and dye the wool.
