6 Boys- 1 Girl

5 sheep have lambed, 2 sets of twins, 5 more to go (I think). All in all, a nice lamb crop with splashes of color and very good genes.  First Crazypants wowed us with the only girl Primrose and her twin brother Percy.    Then Sally gave us Cow Boy   Next was Stuff and her…

It’s a Boy

Surprise surprise surprise! This little guy was waiting for us in a feed pan this morning.     We went out to feed as normal and saw there was a feed pan that has fallen out of the bunk, but when Tom went to grab the pan it had some weight to it. This little…

First lambs of 2016

Crazypants gave us boy/girl twins.   These lambs are Cormo/Romney-Ramboulliet. Both look healthy and are eating good.

Sadness

its hard to post this, but after a long hard fight we lost our little Duke tonight. We may never know why he failed to thrive but we know he was adored and will be remembered. 

Bummer Lambs

   These little lambs are called Bummers because their mommas wouldn’t, or couldn’t, feed them and not eating will kill them -which would be a real bummer. So they have to bum meals off us two leggers in the form of bottles and buckets.    Duchess and Princess are 3 & 4 weeks old and are…
