Sara is closer to lambing! Sides are sunken in, she' is in a horrible mood and has honestly had enough of me poking and prodding her.

The clingy Sara that was yesterday is now a bigass ball of anger. She fullon rammed Ramsey today when he tried to flirt with her..... ya I think she is tired of being pregnant.

All the lambs are doing well Luna and Casper seem to be feeding well (thank god!)

The new twins chip and dale are healthy and are starting to bounce just as they should!

I'm happy with how this season has gone so far. All lambs are healthy, no difficulties in birth and all are gaining good weight. And no rejections which is a huge relief! Only waiting on Sara now.

My cousins got up close and personal with the lambs yesterday! They were overjoyed! The last animal they were able to cuddle with was Newton before she got big and became a jerk. Some of these photos are just adorable and I'm proud to say they really show how much my cousins love animals.
Luna as you can see was NOT impressed in the least lol.

Soooo I went to the auction yesterday to get some more sheep.... didn' actually end up getting sheep..... buuuttt I did get something else :lol::lol::lol::lol:
Meet my new jack (name is still undecided)

He is a fully intact male. We were told he is around five but looking at his teeth I think he is younger. He is currently in with Romeo and Ramsey who have now been separated from the flock (to their dismay)
And every time they jog along the fence line he follows them because he wants to sniff them which ultimately ends up freaking them out due to how large he is compared to them so they all keep running and running and running.:gig
Once I can get a hold of his halter I'll have pictures of his teeth to see if you guys can help me with aging him
