Brown Sheep 2014 Lambing-New Pictures

[BrownSheep]

Great! Milly FINALLY had a ram and a ewe, gigantic and healthy.

Everybody else has the hippity hops and are causing trouble. The smallest lamb has figured out she can jump through the panel squares so she has been having fun with that.

Glad all is well!

Jumping thru the fence.... been there! They have so many toys, but they HAVE to get out

Twin rams yesterday from a first time ewe. One black and one mottle faced.

Milly's lambs are about 6 inches taller .

So finally got some pictures! First let me show you this as to why I don't have too many "good" ones.

Its pretty much a mob.
Some of the "littles"

Littles, a big (6wks), and Mugs ( a bottle baby from last year)

What a difference a couple weeks of growth makes!
1wk ( twin), 4 wks ( quint), and 6 wk olds ( twins)

More later!

One more lamb this morning. My dad was in his suit so I don't know if it was a ram or a ewe. It trotting around after mom so all is well.

Love the pics! Ellie's twins are to cute! Congrats on the babies! How many lambs are you up to now? Also, what breeds of sheep do you raise?

I will need to go over my stats but I think 24 ish not counting the ones we lost.
We started out with Suffolk and Suffolk X ewes and a Horn Dorset ram. In the past couple years we have been moving towards more rambouillet blood.

Yep a solid 24. 9 ewes, 14 rams and the new unknown.
