Moving Day
Busy weekend with lamb vaccinations, FAMACHA checking of the ewes, moving to a new paddock. In the end we were all seeking shade.

Winding Down
Lambing is winding down, with Dolly hanging in there and Charity who was marked very late still to go. The pasture is filled with the wonderful sounds of lambs calling and mamas answering. The grass finally got tall enough last week that we were able to open the bottom of the barn paddock up to the ewes and lambs. We’re hoping to keep them in this area at least until we can get through the first round of shots.
If you have a craving for more lamb pictures, take a peek over here.

Scenes From the Pasture
Birthing
Lambing is moving along at a nice pace. The barn and pasture are busy and full of new life. It’s always so interesting to observe the different way each ewe experiences labor and birth. There is Jill who attacks the whole process with much the same energy that she attacks daily life. She will have given birth within a couple hours of showing any outward signs of labor. Then there is Julie who has a much more zen-like approach to birth, slowly stretching and pushing a little off and on for eight to ten hours. Every birth different… each new life, a new little personality.

The lambs’ wool is growing beautifully! It will be shearing time before we know it. Just look at the lovely ringlets on this guy!

Mark the Calendar
Well, Saturday is definitely a date to mark on the calendar. When we went to bring the lambs in to the barn for FAMACHA scoring, there were the big boys, Poseidon and Aragorn in the wrong paddock. Fingers crossed that there was not too much of a party going on. Bad boys.
