You should totally make that last one your computer wall paper. Or maybe a poster to hang at the store. The sheep has such a great “Heeeeeyyyy guys, what’s up? I’m just chillin’ ” expression.
I love the striped matching fleece covers! First year in a long time I didn’t get up there, likely because my yarn budget was waylaid by a not-to-be-named yarn shop in Ft Collins….. I tend to come home with goaties in the back of my Jeep, so it’s all for the best. Hope you saw some cute alpacas, too!
They had quite a variety there! Thank you for sharing the photos. I’ve been to the Taos Wool Festival several times and I always enjoy seeing the animals they have there — in that area, you get a chance to see quite a few alpacas.
SHEEPIES!!! They never will pose for me, though. I was trying to get a picture of an Angora goat at Kentucky Sheep and Fiber and he kept looking st the camera and turning away. I could almost hear him thinking, “Oh, heck, get that thing out of my face!”
@ Marsha: Antlers are branched and shed yearly, Horns are never shed and in some species grow throughout the lifespan… also they have different composition and attach to the head differently. 🙂
It was a great time at Wool Market — we were there Saturday all day and Sunday morning (why yes, I bought a fleece Saturday and had to go back Sunday for another one!)
The Kansas City group had a great weekend at the Loopy Ewe and Estes Wool Market!
HOLY SHEEP!!!! 🙂 I love them, the goats too – especially that amazing 3 horned one !! wowza 🙂
What luscious wool they must make … visions of skeins danced in her head…
lol Happy Friday! 🙂

Love the sheep pictures. I have some of those beloved creatures in my pasture. They are a sight to behold. Now to get moving on my room full of sheared wool.
The 4 horned sheep shown is my yearling ram Merlin. He is a Jacob ram. Hors are different than antlers as they are permanent and non shedding items that are blood filled. Antlers are a seasonal growth that is shed and regroups annually
Hmmm. 12 photos. I see a calendar in the future!
Great phots! I wanted to bring home my very own pacu vicuna! The one I wanted was named Corvus.
Oops – I spelled that wrong – it’s a paco vicuna.
I love them in their outfits. Does anyone ever knit a sheep a sweater? don’t they deserve it???
They are sweet and precious!
They are adorable! I want a couple to mow my back yard.

I am in love!
Love the photos! Especially that sheep with 4 horns! Why are they horns on sheep and cows and antlers on deer and elk?

I wouldn’t mind a few of those either! I particularly like that last picture 🙂 How happy does that sheep look?
The second shot looks like it’s carved from marble and I just love the striped coats!
I love how the last one looks like it’s smiling!
LOVE!!!!!! the last one looks like he/she is laughing 🙂

Don’t you just wanna hug them!
What great faces!
I like the one in the striped cover that’s looking back over its shoulder at you.
What do you do there while WH is taking all those great pics?
Get a few of these, and you can retire the lawn mower!
I love their little jackets!!!
What cute pictures!!!
Lovin the photos and the sheepies, and yeah I wish I had some too. Maybe someday right now I think I will just work on getting a GSD.

I like the photo of the goat with the “goat”tee, and the last photo as well.
