Our shearing shed finally arrived, now to get from a flat pack to something that looks like a real life shearing shed – but not until after the ram sale. Kynan Little is building it for us using an AWI adapted design with a raised board (Magnus shed) I will take plenty of photos once work commences – hopefully in August. We are also getting new yards – Darren’s own design using Brazen from Lienert’s at Kimba.

Darren got the ‘professional photographers’ i.e. his nieces Emerson ‘Emmy’ and Regan O’Brien in to take the photos of the rams for the website, including the star of the show ‘Orbit’ – Regan’s little dog.
