Daisy and the girls

Daisy is the ewe that is looking straight at the camera. She's the alpha ewe here at Bella Vita Farm & Fiber. She likes to push her weight around, especially at the feeding trough. Daisy has the most personality of all the sheep and her fleece is to die....or should I say dye for? Well both apply...she's a Finnish Landrace sheep, often referred to as Finns. Finns lamb in litters (8 lambs have been recorded) and I'm hoping that Daisy has a nice one of her own. Daisy came from a set of quads and her two sisters, Dolly and Dot, are the black sheep on the left side of the picture.
