Second and final goat had her kid today. I was sure she would have at least twins but she just had one teeny doeling. Oh well, rather have one lovely doeling than two bucklings any day.






Fat little goat man is growing a beard already :lol:


The sheepies are growing like weeds. Still have 4 more left to lamb.

Juniper and Primrose


Jazz's ewe lamb, Bramble


And the ram lamb, Bracken.

My first non-spotty lamb! He's a big white Romeldale.


Flirt had him before breakfast and tried to hide him behind a pole but I saw those giant ears and new it wasn't a Jacob.


I was hoping for some color but as long as he's healthy I don't mind that he's white.


Love those ears!

Adorable! Here come the white woolies! It's fun to have some white wool to play with for variety. Are the Cormos bred, too?

One of them is and has looked like she was moments away from giving birth for the last month. The other one doesn't look like she took. I really should have crutched her before putting her in with the ram, I'm not sure Al could tell which end was which! I'm thinking of putting her back in with the ram now that she's sheared for late fall lambs but I have a wedding to work around this fall.

I'm down to just the cormo, the other romeldale, and one more jacob and I'll be done lambing for the season!

Eleanor, the other romeldale, decided she didn't want to be left out and had her lamb this morning.


She heard we're a fan of spots around here.


He is a massive 14.5 lb ram. Grey badgerface with spots and brown stripes on his legs.


Legs that long are really challenging to figure out.


Got it! I love his little black pants.


Just in time for the open house/shearing festival we're having today! Good job El.
