Smashing lamb

.... very similar to my girl born on Tuesday... here is mother showing her off and suckling her in the pen.... They are delightful aren't they... like little fawns!

We had a ewe lamb today in the spring sunshine. Once again, no need for any help at all, mum just found her spot and got on with it. We brought them both in in the evening just for protection but I don't think they need it in this weather.

My cmm lambed twins last week boy and girl, sired by my moorit shetland.
Because the mules had started with big lambs I've been weighing them all at birth.

The 'big' brother weighed 2.5kg, the girl 1.8. Very fawn like.
No problems out in the field and charging round with all the rest of the shetland lamb gang.
