Baby lambs!
Here are 2 of our baby lambs that were born this last late jan. (we had twins from two different mothers.)
They are like kittens and puppies, very cute to watch and deal with when they are little!
We inherited three large sheep for a (partial) exchange for a birth I did for an Amish family, two were going to have babies we were told, but they had no idea of when....January is NOT the time to be lambing!
They both had twins, the problem is we did not know when to expect them, so the very first one that delivered, the first little baby was lost to freezing temperatures. After that, with hair dryers out there to help warm the new little ones until they were well under way...then a heat lamp inside the barn, to have an area of where they could keep warm. This last winter was very very cold!
