Ewe a day - Siena

Siena is another Pompey daughter from 2011 who has helped us a lot. She also lacks the fineness that our more recent ewes have, but her great density more than makes up for that. Her SF this year was 25.4 microns. So, Siena, Itasca, English Garden, and Vogue are really the only ewes we have left that are not what we would call Superfine. Each has a purpose, however, and none of them owe us anything.

Gives her a quick sniff

And yummy

I've never seen such a dark brown katmoget. She's really lovely!
