This was my surprise last year...Picture taken over 2 weeks until lambing. I just knew she would have triplets. NOPE - she had twins.

This is my ewe about 20 hours before she lambed. She had a 7.8 lb ram, a 6.8 lb ewe, and a 5.8 lb ewe.

She doesn't look as wide as she had just a day or two before, her teats got larger, and her vulva got pink and swollen.

I was hoping she would have triplets due to her size, but I was only expecting twins because she had last lambed with twins May 25, 2012. She surprised me with triplets March 7, 2013. She is due again for February 13, 2014 lambs.

Boykin...I would have been thinking quads!!!! Sheepgirl, she hid those triplets big time!!! Our flashy little one is a ram...had it been a ewe, would be keeping her just for that colouring. He's nursing up a storm and jumping around for fun...way too cute!!!!! First one with those colours for us here :)

Bonbean OMG that is a cute lamb!
I'd love it if Wendy had a black lamb :) I think they're just the cutest things!
Though unlikely, there is still hope!
(you might have to take more pictures)

I LOVE ALL THE PICTURES.
Compared to last week, Wendy has gotten wider.
This morning Wendy had an itch on her face and tried to scratch it with her back foot.
Unfortunately she was too wide and could not reach her face with said foot XD
Boy can she still run though :/ When there is grain to be had in the barn SHE IS THERE.



Her belly had dropped lower to the ground since Christmas.

YES
Lamb pics are the best.

What was the father of that little black lamb like?
Was he dark like the lamb?
Or is this just one of those random color lambies?

ANOTHER EWE?
Oh boy oh boy oh boy.
