WWGA Youth Flock Program
Update from Ryan Schmeltzer
Dear Wyoming Wool Growers,
Everything with my flock is doing very good. I sold my bucks for a decent
price to a guy from Ten Sleep. Some of that money I put away to pay for the
money that I owe WWGA in a couple years. With the rest of the money, I
bought two ewe-lambs from Joe Salzman.
This coming spring I will have seven ewes to lamb. Four of them which have
lambed before. I put the buck in with my ewes on October 5th. I am due to
lamb on March 1st. Last year I had four ewes lamb and I got three lambs, all
of which are rams. One of them I showed at the Washakie County Fair. At fair
I got Reserve Champion Overall Breeding Ram.
I didn't compete at the Wyoming State Fair in Douglas, WY.
We have had our sheep on hay stubble since October 5th. Then on November
16th we moved our
sheep to a neighbors place across the road, on hay stubble as well. We hope
to bring them home
around the first of the upcoming year.
Sincerely,
Ryan Schmeltzer
