It’s the middle of October which means we are finishing the last few items on the winter is coming list.  We have all the pieces to put together the chicken and rabbit shelter for winter and will be doing that hopefully within the next week.  The pig is going to the butcher Monday with two of the lambs.  We will be repurposing the box we brought Miss Purdy home in to bring the pig to the butcher.  The project for this weekend is to get the pig box reinforced and back on the trailer to be ready to load her up Sunday evening.  Another exciting thing this weekend will be shearing the woolies.  Jeff and I have never sheared sheep but luckily a friend of ours is going to come and help us and hopefully teach Jeff how to shear the girls.  I will try to get lots of pictures this weekend.
