We LOVE Jacob sheep and frankly I think the kid learns as much (or more) on the farm than in a classroom - and I'm a teacher!<br /><br />There's a lot of work on a sheep farm but priceless rewards as well. I hope everyone who comments gets a chance to experience a real working sheep farm.roxy1364https://www.blogger.com/profile/06000298306960549642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274338570144827085.post-39301573134818611402011-10-03T18:41:28.646-07:002011-10-03T18:41:28.646-07:00I would like to take care of the lambs who lost th...I would like to take care of the lambs who lost their mothers or whose mothers won't feed them.
