Blessings of Blindness
As I navigated through the thick mud, nine sheep followed in my footsteps. They’d never been in the cow pasture before, but I’d noticed a long strip of green grass along the fence line. This would be a real treat in the middle of January. The tricky part would be crossing the ditch full of

Sheltered With the Shepherd
The impressive storm rolled in fast. This was the first significant weather event that the sheep had weathered in the new pasture, so I decided to brave the thunder, lightening, and sideways rain, to drive over to check on them.

The Power of Presence
On our farm, we have twenty egg laying hens and five game chickens that free range. Although Easter egg hunts are fun, hunting eggs every day gets old, so we shut the egg layers up in the chicken yard. We left our game rooster and his four hens turned out to keep the stalls “turned

Fierce Reflections
Judah. He is a perfect representation of the Analolian Shepherd breed standard. He is a fierce protector, but he is gentle as well. He will address any threat without reservation, but he is also a babysitter to lambs and goat kids who often use his body as their playground. But Judah, like all of us, is
