It's soooo adorable! Lambs seem to have a built in smile.,

12lb girl from Jemima this morning.
As much as I love being there while the lambs are born, I definitely prefer finding them up and fed. So much less stress. The cameras make that so much easier too.
I changed the location of the 2nd camera. It was struggling to get a consistent internet connection. It’s still slow, but it’s working better. Bonus is that I can now see the blind corner up at the gate.
Ida is so far past her due date that at this point I think she must have cycled again right before I changed the raddle color on the ram.

Hirta is in labor and I’m at work for another 2hrs. Good thing I’ve got the cameras.

It’s another girl!
Hirta was pretty dramatic while pushing her baby out. I can’t really blame her since the baby weighs 11.3lbs.

The live lamb count is 5 girls and 1 boy. Add in the 2 that died and we are at 6 and 2.

So far, I'm having more females, too. Unusual but welcome. Easier because they can stay with mom longer when we consider early breeding issues and weaning. In my case, I'm wanting to add a couple does to my breeding herd and this helps. Can grow out longer to pick keepers/sellers.
