    Sorry to hear that you have left the sheep business seedman. Sadly, I think it is a sign of things to come. Where are you located?

    The weather this summer has not made things any easier - it is going to be very tough to find hay this fall, let alone deal with the cost of it. $100 hay bales do not pencil out too well.

    Cheers,

      We are located in Tilley, Alberta, about 1 hour West of of Med Hat or 20 min East Brooks. It was a hard decision to make, but we were dealing with restructuring a few things on our farm as we were spreading ourselves too thin. Unfortunately, the sheep were the ones that got the axe. I am going to miss the cash flow from the lamb crop. More than a few times they made my land payment when barley was only $1.50/bu. We started our flock with 5 ewes back in 1985. We just tore down all our corrals and pasture fence this summer. Did we make a mistake? Time will tell.....
