“These are the times that try men's souls.” | I honestly can't reply on the wool market as I've been away from the sheep industry for going on now 33 years. But I will tell you only range sheep operations left are old family operations no new start ups.. Very few left, between predation and government policy on federal lands it's very tough to keep in business. Very hard to make a living in the sheep industry. Idaho and Utah as well as Nevada still have big operations. My son's camp project has kind of come to a stand still with school and busy helping me wean calves this fall. He just got back from FFA convention last Saturday. So hoping he can get back on it this weekend some.
I was checking out Warm Creek Wools Facebook page, I see they posted a video of when they helped us trail pairs out of Utah into Idaho this spring. It was a good day. https://www.facebook.com/WarmCreekWool/videos/10156350741819557/ |
