purplequeenvt Lambing 2016

Things did not go well on Monday night. We lost our Stevie Girl and her lamb. We are all heartbroken. Steve was a one in a million animal.



I ended up taking a half day at work on Tuesday (I work 5 am to 1:30 pm) as I was too upset. Pulled in the driveway just as my dad texted me to say that Minnie (2 year old 1st timer BL) had just had a black ram lamb. Minnie is Steve's granddaughter.

So sorry you lost Stevie and her lamb. Always hard to lose any. Congrats on the follow up births. 5 more to go isn't so bad... Hope they're all successful

So sorry to hear about Stevie.

At least you've got lamb's popping out all I bet the place.
