Jazz has always had twins or trips and always has at least one girl, she's an awesome ewe! Almost all of my Jacobs are related to her now because I love her so much.

I think last summer's draught caused a lot of singles this year. I'm really hoping most of the rest of my girls have twins :fl They all look it except for a yearling who I only expect a single out of.

It wasn't completely terrible out today so all babies went out to see the world. This means you get a massive photodump.

This little chunker is about 11 lbs now.


He is so much fun. Always bouncing and leaping.


Primrose remains the cutest thing.


She's so soft!


Jazz's babies are pretty cute too though.


"ugh mom stop."


Baby boy is really friendly and sweet.


The one clump of white eyelashes is too cute.

Oh Roving- I just love your Jacobs!!

Once we are on more land I will need to go on your list... I would love to have some of your Jacobs.... but I like 2 horns... JFYI ;)

We ran into our sheep vet yesterday at TSC... she was going to shear her sheep in the afternoon...invited us over to watch. We went and if was pretty cool to see how it is properly done, although the groomer in me cannot stand the uneven spots or lines LOL. Her jacobs are beautiful too! The little ewe yesterday had real nice 4 black hooves and feet and beautiful black patches with great symmetry on the face. Loved her spots and the wool was great. I thought of you and thought RJ would be proud..this girl is purty! :lol:

Your lambies are adorable... what is the first pic.?

It's hard getting them as smooth and nice as you did with the big clumsy sheep shears! Luckily all the uneven spots grow out in a couple of weeks. I actually really like the 2 horned ones too and nearly ended up with a 2 horned ram last year but it was sold before I got there to choose mine so I got Windsor instead. I know some of my 4 horns throw 2 horned lambs so I'm hoping for little pretty ewes like Primrose and Jewel but with 2 horns some day.

The choco chunk is my angora goat buckling. They're honorary sheep around here.
