It’s always with mixed emotions that we watch the little wethers leave the ranch, but these last two—Marcus and Richard—went to a wonderful family. We thank Mom Julie for purchasing them and taking them to such a nice home. Daughter Camryn (9 years old, above) will be showing the boys in 4-H at the Routt County Fair in August.
Camryn had a brand new collar for Marcus that she put on while her dad, Billy, helped hold him. She had one for Richard, too, so both looked spiffy by the time she was done dressing them up!
But somehow Mom (Julie) got stuck carrying the heaviest wether to the vehicle. She’s a real trooper and made it all the way out through the barn and the stack yard without losing him. Bet her arms were tired!
At the top of this post, you see the picture showing them ready for their trip to Routt County. Camryn is looking forward to working with both boys and said she would teach them to lead when she got them home. 4-H is a fantastic program and we have no doubt that she will do very well at the fair.
Good luck, Camryn!
