WOW - We had been talking to them about their sheep and then communication stopped. To think that could have been me chasing sheep!! I do hope that they find a home for their sheep though. Our friends teenage boy was interested in raising sheep so we were trying to help him out. He likes horns (macho) :) Mark Wintermute I am sure many of you read the add for free sheep in Kansas. We made arrangements to pick them up Sunday. And were going to pay for them. Well after driving 7 1/2 hours through storms etc. When my husband arrived they were in a very large lot with no way to catch them. The folks thought they would just walk up and walk into the horse trailor on their own. And the police were there to top that off with lights flashing! needless to say the trailor was empty on the way home. If anyone else decides to go after these animals please be aware that you will neeed to bring fence and everything else needed to catch them. They are on a sandy dirt road to boot so be sure you take a 4x4 which we didn't. Just a few thoughts for those who might go.
