Wow Shelley May hit it right on EXACTLY!

Congrats!

Praying the L-rd bless you in abundance with health and hardiness with your flock. I know you probably see a great deal through your farming... I know we do! There is sooo much in the bible in regard to these creatures.

Here they are!

The one closer to mom is twin #2

Twin #2 - she was born with one leg back, but we got her out without any trouble. She also has "rust" or brown coloring on her ears and legs. It is not ideal on a white BL, but occasionally they are born with this brown staining and it generally it fades out pretty quickly.

I took educational photos of the birth of the 1st lamb. I'm trying to decide if I should put them here or make a thread in the sheep section. Opinions?

I'll get better pictures of them this evening or tomorrow. And we are looking for names, preferably starting with "G" although Lyd wants to call one of them Emily. :/

So cute and big!

Definitely post the educational photos in the sheep section. I don't think everyone on BYH reads the journal forum, and it would be very useful info for people looking for info. Can't wait to see it!
