It's Just Begun!




Lambing, of course!! Nine-year-old Annie Oakley (grey) delivered a single black ram lamb sometime in the wee hours of the morning. Midnight was delivered, licked clean, and even had breakfast when my husband found them in the barn during the morning barn check. That's the way we like it!!


This year our "theme" for lamb names will be weather happenings. We are looking forward to finding the right lambs to be Mist, Thunder, Wind, Frost, Lightning, etc.


Next up will be Gina possibly on Easter. Then there is Charlotte. We haven't a due date for her yet her udder is larger than anyone's including the ewe that lambed today!!
Thank goodness for Easter Break!!
