They are all so cute! Can't wait for ours to start arriving!!!
Well, my Southdown ewe lambed on Wednesday afternoon and had 2 natural colored ewe lambs!! They were sired by my nat. colored Romney ram. So, I got a natural colored ewe like I wanted, but too bad it's a cross instead of a pure Romney.Royd Wood said:We should do a swap - I have 3 more yearlings to lamb so we might get a spotted Romney ewe for youaggieterpkatie said:I have a Romney ewe (white) and last year she was bred to a natural colored ram. She had a white ewe and nat. ram. This year she was bred to the same ram and I was really hoping for a natural colored ewe lamb and she gave me white twin rams.Royd Wood said:yes Romneys - I used a small natural coloured ram on my white yearling ewes and suprised at the outcome myself. They are cute but not for keeps and the main thing was smaller lambs for my yearlings as my white breeding stock ram is too big for the young mums
Oh thats too bad aggie but you could pretend and I bet they will look great - stick on some pics if you get chanceaggieterpkatie said:Well, my Southdown ewe lambed on Wednesday afternoon and had 2 natural colored ewe lambs!!

I'm pretty excited about the cross actually, and I plan on keeping the larger of the twins as long as she grows out well. I put pics on my blog , but need to put more updated pics up!Royd Wood said:Oh thats too bad aggie but you could pretend and I bet they will look great - stick on some pics if you get chanceaggieterpkatie said:Well, my Southdown ewe lambed on Wednesday afternoon and had 2 natural colored ewe lambs!!
