Saturday morning, the CODERLAMBIAN shepherds headed out with their sheep to the Clark County event center for weigh-in.
"Weigh-in" is the beginning of a process to make sure that our sheep are getting proper nourishment and gaining weight. We weigh our sheep here and then also when we arrive at the fair.
All of the lambs weighed more than they have in the past. So if you buy one of our lambs this year, you're bound to get a lot of meat. :)
