The Heat of Mid-Shearing....

So we started shearing Saturday...and thanks to our damp muggy weather lately, it is taking a little longer than we would like.


And thanks to issues with shears....it is now Monday and not everyone is done...


So while Parnell and Usairus are cool and comfy, Tyrone is only half finished and not authorizing any photos and the other three boys are wondering what's taking so long. 

Today the temperature is already over +20 at 8:30 am and tomorrow is supposed to feel like +39 degrees celsius with the humidity.  Every fan we own is in the barn blowing into the boys' paddock.  Our breeder, who also does our shearing, is making the shearing a priority and is working very hard at getting the issues with shears corrected so she can get back and make our boys all cool and comfortable.

Fingers crossed everyone that the fans do the trick....
