First Lambs of 2012
Declan did an early morning barn check and came back with the news that Pumpkin had two lambs at her side. She is usually the first to lamb. What beauties these are. Woden is the father as I wanted to bring out the fine fleeced moorit pattern in this breeding. The ewe lamb has sugar lips so she will be moorit grey and the ram lamb is solid moorit. The ram is available for sale and I may be keeping the ewe . . . just depends on if Elena finally gives me a ewe this year. The ram lamb weighed 6 pounds and the ewe about 5 1/2 lbs.
