<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><b>A ram year for the Shetlands, too, but not as "lopsided" as with my Icelandics. But WOW - the variation of these fleeces is amazing! All are spotted, but varying from almost solid to all types of "flashy" coats. Sometimes I think my favorites are the HST (I have both black and moorit this year!), but then there's my amazing katmoget. And the fleckets. And the ones that are solid except for amazing facial markings. I'm also very pleased with the fleeces this year. I'm partial to the ones that are somewhere between the "kindly" and the "primitive" as they are more versatile. At least that's my opinion. </b></span></div>

<b>Bellwether Harris<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
A moorit sponget ram twin. Brother of Lewis, and with an
equally amazing face.. His fleece is very interesting – underneath the moorit
tips, it is dark gray mixed with dark brown, not like the typical musket. He
may also carry the modifier from her sire, although it is not showing at this
point. Her mother had this
coloration pattern as a lamb as well, and her morrit lambs also have all had
this patterning.. His mature
fleece will be on the primitive side of intermediate, with moderate crimp. Nice
wide horns. Born 4/16/12. Sire is Twin Springs Forvik (emsket); dam is Twin Springs
Bernera.<o:p></o:p></div>

Where has the time gone? Maple syrup time is here and lambing around the corner. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I’m very excited this year about the prospects for both the Icelandic and Shetland lambs. Breeding season was quite extended this year – which means that lambing will be too -- but I think it was well worth it. Most of my Icelandic ewes are bred to AI sires, with several others bred to F<sub>1</sub> AI farm rams. So there will be lots of new genetics entering the flock. I’ve posted my “who is bred to whom” list, which you can below.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I mixed up things with my Shetlands, with new breeding match-ups for many of the ewes, and some old pairings because I really liked what they produced. This year, I also used two of my ram lambs for breeding, which should add some interesting possibilities! You can check out the possibilities on my “who is bred to whom.” list.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
