Madame Wu has become the head ewe. Cory held that title, but with her departure, Wu has stepped up.
Every flock has a dominant ewe and if there are several rams, one of them will be the top boss. There is order to that system. It works well for the flock. Tiny and Madame Wu are about the same age, but with Tiny’s troubles this past winter, she lost status. Wu would routinely challenge Cory by head butting, and if Cory had stayed here then perhaps in a few years the status might have changed.
With Cory’s departure, Wu stepped right up. Good for her. She is a great sheep. 5 lambs, all ewes, all with color. 2 sets of twins. Yup a good sheep. We will keep her.
