Gave Cloud some formula to fill him up for the night. Will go back out later to feed him again. His brother, JamesBond, is larger and took longer to be born, which meant that little Cloud was left in a corner for awhile and is a little behind now.
But they've got their sweaters on, bellies full and ready for their first night in the big mean world!

And I may have a buyer for the mix ewe.

Raining today, ick...

This is mah llamaaa face!!!

Ughmmm, Marshmallow...are you a Highland cow or a sheep?

Greedy sheep just finished their food, now they want the gelding's share, too! The hogs!!

Here, you have a visual of how I feel about waiting for Lolla's baby to come.
Ugghhh, still nothin, mah. Better bet on another!
Whatever you guys, I can cook this baby for as long as I want! So >=P

Beautiful pictures! Thanks for sharing! I am new to babydolls and this forum. Wondering if I could pick your brain a little? We had our first lambs born a few days ago. How soon should a lamb be castrated? Trying to get a handle on the scrapie testing to decide which route to go with him. Also, is 500 units of tetanus antitoxin sufficient to give for banding tails? Thanks so much!

I use the 1,500 units single dose, you use all of it, no measuring required.
If the mom had her yearly booster 4wks before lambing, I don't bother with the TA shot.

You can castrate as soon as you can find both testicles or as late as 3-5mo.
