    Our ewes are at the tail end of breeding right now. They are out on pasture. They bed down on the hay in the lee of the woods. And they do not have water, they eat snow. Un roll hay every few days, feed them a lb of grain a day, they are doing fine. -49 with windchill today. They IMHO are tougher than cows.

    I do take it back that I love this weather. Today is different. Very uncomfortable, because I over dress, then I get sweating, and the combination, along with wearing glasses that fog up and get coated in frost, makes for discomfort. Not so much that I get cold, it is the discomfort of no being able to see, and sweat freezing on my forehead and glasses. Up to today, I liked being outside, today is tougher..

    Need to wear less, I guess? lol.
