don't you love the blue eyes! 3 of the 5 mine had are blue.. We're keeping two of the light buff doelings (blue eyes). Congrats on your babies so far!

Beautiful kids! There are some great colors and I love the blue eyes! 
I see your comments about "buckling thread" and "year of the buckling," and smile because we had just the opposite happen this year. Out of 12 kids, we only had 3 bucklings (I was knocked out of my socks at the odds). LOL - if we were closer, I'd ask you about a little ND kid switch-a-roo. I certainly wouldn't mind having one or two of those boys to breed my girls to next year.

We still have 3 does to kid, so maybe we will still turn it around.

You said they can be hard to tell apart. 
Try all white lambs. Even the couple of black ones I have are all marked the same!

Coleus kidded today. Triplets, two girls and a boy. Finally some girls.
My wife texted me, "one doeling so far". Then about 5 minutes later she texted " 2 doelings". I texted to her "tell her to stop right there". My wife texted " 1 buck". I texted "tell her to please stop now !!!!"
The first two are the girls. 2-10oz and 2-2oz
And this is the boy. 3-13oz

It was weird in that the boy was the last one born. Big boys usually come first.
