I think Ryelands ARE particularly bonny lambs - but then I have them.

Congratulations, kaz :thumbsup:

Here's my first coloured lamb of season, out of overall Royal Welsh winner of coloured Ryelands. Well chuffed.

That's lovely  :love: will it stay so dark or do they become lighter as they age?

Usually they get lighter with age - we have chocolate brown ones to silvery grey ones  :)

They are great!  If I wasn't so stupid, I'd put up some pics of our Southdown lambs.  They are on f/b and twitter - sorry!
