Milking East Friesian Dairy Sheep https://i.imgur.com/OCmsKxB.jpeg Getting things in order at our milking stanchion. The sheep are still uncomfortable with it so we brought the lamb over to help calm the sheep down. https://i.imgur.com/AFKGrcD.jpeg Took the time to trim the hooves too. They were in a pretty wet paddock over the winter so the hooves needed some attention. https://i.imgur.com/45rQhFi.mp4 Getting the hang of milking. There is definitely a learning curve and I'm sure things would move much more quickly if we had a mentor near by to show us thier technique. All in all, another step forward in our sovereign dairy production. #permaculture #permies #homesteading #grownostr #regenag #regenerativeagriculture #dairy #rawmilk #milking #eastfriesian #localfood #sheep #lamb nostr:nevent1qqswd852fhye0vufdqdfszpp8jw5rguy4jjnnyy643rspus4k20345spz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygzdqg7wnh7htflnqadcarsggqytu9ap7agvvw6auus7dmug8tw8v5psgqqqqqqscaztz6

Our goat milk supplier is going to have sheep's milk this summer. I'm looking forward to trying it.
I'm sure it's going to be delicious!

Your doing great 👍🏻
Second East Friesian Dairy Ewe's Lambs are born. Twins! https://i.imgur.com/sDC2Vxb.jpeg Now that both of the dairy sheep have their lambs we will be milking both daily. https://i.imgur.com/orrzdf2.jpeg Tried putting the lamb in a tote to keep it contained and close to it's mom so she would remain calm during milking. https://i.imgur.com/WCbiDeF.jpeg It's getting easier each day and I'm sure we will have the hang of it in no time. Milking around 3 pints each time from this ewe. #permaculture #permies #homesteading #grownostr #regenag #regenerativeagriculture #dairy #rawmilk #milking #eastfriesian #localfood #sheep #lamb nostr:nevent1qqs8s3gra3j4kndxppuzxmkdtxre5pz2ag587d7ugrhe5vwn8gvhx0gpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7q3qf5pre6wl6ad87vr4hr5wppqq30sh58m4p33mthnjreh03qadcajsxpqqqqqqzdaymz9
