Bonnie, Bob, and Blossom |
Bonnie, Bob, and Blossom stand on an old foundation to a silo in back of our barn. Being some of the first lambs born on our farm, and representing the perfect Romney sheep with dark, black points and clean faces, they have become our farm mascot. Bonnie, pictured to the far left, remains on VT Grand View Farm as one of our breeding ewes. Blossom, on the far right, now resides with a young girl involved in 4-H. Bob, standing so proudly in the center, is our resident wether.
Bob |
Every farm needs a dependable wether. Bob has become our ram’s companion during the non-breeding season, and the lamb sitter during the fall breeding. His predictable behavior and compliant spirit brings a sense of calm to his little section of the farm. Bob’s gentle disposition also makes him a favorite among the B&B guests to our farm.

Well, I have yet to master knitting but I did have Danby & Chelsea’s wool processed into roving and I needle felted a hat and I love the feel of it! Have a wonderful New Year!

The Angora goat, Figaro, that I got from you a few years ago is my “dependable wether”. He is a love and gets along with almost all of my other goats. He’s a kid companion at weaning time and a buck companion during breeding season. Everyone does need a dependable wether!!!
