What a treat! Our first white lambs from Blackberry. Her lambs have always had just beautiful fleeces so we are anxious to see how these white ones develop.

A ram 12 lbs 1 oz born first.



Then a very strange 'butt-first' delivery of a lovely little ewe. Thank goodness she weighed 4 lbs less than her big brother. She weighed in at 8 lbs 9 ozs

Annie's first set of twins arrived at a much more decent hour; first a very nice ewe lamb weighing 10 lbs 13 ozs and then a great little ram lamb at 9 lbs 1 oz.

Appropriately enough, our special girl, Dawn, gave us a very early morning gift of a beautiful little ewe lamb weighing 10 lbs 6 ozs

Fast and Furious

Daisy adds another ewe lamb to the barn, 9 lbs 14 ozs



Later in the evening, Athena presents two ram lambs. The first one is a feisty little fellow, born with an 'o-hawk' and an attitude. Of course he has been named Owen (after former WVU full-back Owen Schmidt.) He weighed 8 lbs 4 ozs.





His brother born shortly after weighed 11 lbs 9 ozs

Poor Hera has looked miserable for weeks now. We were speculating... could she be having triplets?

No... just twins, but two pretty big lambs - a white ram lamb weighing 11 lbs 2 ozs and a black ewe lamb weighing 10 lbs. They were born very vigorous and aggressive and had no problem figuring out how to nurse very quickly. They are Coopworth-Border Leicester X Wensleydale-Coopworth.

This little fellow weighed 10 lbs 5 ozs and at first glance seems to have a huge left eye. When you look closer he has a thin black spot on both his lower and upper eye lid giving the appearance of black eye liner. Hazel is the proud mama of this ram lamb.

Our girl, Hebe, produced another lovely ewe lamb weighing 12 lbs 4 ozs in another not so lovely middle of night delivery.
