Had this Idea, needed to get lambs away from round bale feeders, as this is where they cuddle up for warmth, on the ground up against feeder, while momma's are out running around eating out of different feeder, or roaming pasture trying to see if the grass grew 1/8" over night and they want to be the first to get it. , So had the hay guy come out to farm and unroll a few bales in pastures.
Yeah, this worked momma's and babies now together and babies have more hay to cuddle in as it rolled out everywhere. As hay guy was rolling hay out in back field I decided to go to car and get camera and snap a few photo's, I just got a few and you have to look under momma's legs/behind them/laying down in hay, some babies are hidden. Maybe we should make a game of it, count how many babies you find, , Several are real muddy but I have already told you that.

Bonbean01, just happen to catch site of one of those spotted ones you like leaping through air and snapped a quick picture for you, this is just a teaser for you all to see all the cuteness running around. , Ellie May did a real good job today, but we had time to gauck a little more today while hay man was putting out hay, Oh DH, I had hay guy come out and put hay out for me since you are out of town. This was just one area of babies, will get more soon. My third party who did show up, has a bad knee and could walk out in the muddy area to take pictures as she was a fraid she would end up on her butt.

Ok, trying to play the how many lambs in the photo game is too crazy! I think I counted 15 in the second shot, 7 in the first I think. I quit after the second shot trying to count all the lambs! Love all the different colors!

@Goodolboy

Update: Straw PM me saying he had a dream that he had a black Katahdin lamb, that he got from us, We all know he is a goatie, so he said he had no idea why he had that dream. . Of course I told him I could fullfill his dreams as I had alot of black lambs.. One of my breeding rams is almost all black, and I have another that is black and white...... so lots of black babies The almost pure black ram bred 48 ewes, and the black and white ram bred 43 ewes....Straw they do better in pairs

Glad everyone had a cuteness overload, and this was just one area of momma's, they are in such big lots and scattered hard to get all in photos, would run around and take more but it takes so long TO UPLOAD THEM ON THIS SITE , as many of you all ready know, Ellie May took a picture of a really nice looking colored lamb we were tagging only one of its color so far, maybe she will post it today? , Southern I told her not to get my face in photo, I will try to get more tonight, no promises, depends how many babies we have to chase and tag. I believe Ellie May and myself have tagged 30 babies so far together, since DH has been gone....UGH

This am, to funny, all the momma's and babies where all bedded down on the long line of hay that was rolled out yesterday, LOOKED like they were in line waiting to buy TICKETS / or PURCHASE something that was going on sale just to cute..... Okay back to the day job.....
