Hi Bonnie

Craft's Bjorn is pictured at http://www.patchworkfibers.com/spahr.html
I'll just add it again that I'll be glad to post pictures  for anyone that would like to share 
them with the list.  Sheep for sale are also fine.  I started doing these simple webpages for 
myself and others last year.  I've enjoyed doing it and it has given me a chance to "see" 
other flocks.

I also have a Bjorn daughter.  She is also hard to catch but very easy to handle once caught.  
 She just presented us with a beautiful pair of twins (ram/ewe).

Lambing count as of this morning is 4 ewes and 3 rams.  I'm extremely pleased with them.  They 
have all been up nursing within minutes and bouncing around shortly thereafter.  So far, 
fleeces look great and all the ewes have really good markings.  Plus this is four times as 
many ewes as we got last year - so I'm ecstatic over that fact alone!!
