More Rammitzvahs!

Baapolis Volume 1 Chapter 19

Jan 23, 2025

While Kopernicus is rolling down hills, and Iris is contemplating a worrisome future, the Peneshire Ewes are partying hard.

They are visiting heaps and heaps of Rammitzvahs! A Rammitzvah is when a ram turns sixteen moons old in most sheep cultures. There are exceptions. Some sheep cultures believe twenty-four moons is the right time for Rammitzvah. Some cultures can celebrate as early as seven moons. The determination comes from each sheep culture’s perception on when a male lamb is ready to be a Ram - sensibilities, strengths, solitary survival skills, and sexual interests.

The Rammitzvah also provides a good occasion for groups of ewes to check the ram out as a potential mate for the season in an environment that’s familiar to the ram.

Here, the Peneshire ewes are entering Samson’s Rammvitzvah.

Samson, who seems to be of Katadhin breed, flexes his visible muscles as the ewes enter. The ewes are mesmerized for his muscles are not hidden in layers of wool. He is strong!

Excited with what they are seeing, the Peneshire ewes’ curiosity to go to even more Rammitzvahs escalates. Next, they venture into Svan’s Rammitzvah. Svan looks to be a Ramanov breed. And he’s terrific at sheep ballet!

He can stretch his crotch really really wide!

He can even tap his hooves. Dah, Dah! Pah Pah!

The Peneshire ewes are so captivated they don’t know who to choose. So on they go. Go and go. They arrive at Elek’s Rammitzvah. Oh dear Elek! He can balance heavy pots on his unusual long and twisty horns!

There are even fully filled liquids in the pots. And he’s not letting go of a drop! He’s probably a Racka breed. Oh and he’s walking in a perfect straight line.

The Peneshire ewes become wildly dreamy. They seem to have tossed behind their rational weighing of situations at the start when they were still in their own home’s oratorium, promising to think carefully, and vote diligently this season…
