Your lambs are adorable.
Do you ever shear the lambs before they start turning grey? Is their wool softer?
Love that second photo.My bottle baby, Lizzie, lambed today.
I had concerns about her mothering abilities since her mom just plopped her out and walked away (she has having nutritional issues) and then she almost died from selenium deficiency. She did great though and had no issues letting him nurse.
I bred her to the Shetland ram because I wanted her to have smaller babies/smaller heads to make delivery easier on her since she’s a smaller ewe. Well, that didn’t work. He’s just over 9lbs.
She’s the last ewe due for a week and then we’ll be in the home stretch.
