You could say that my life has gone to the lambs!
We have been busy here and everyone is excited about the new arrivals…
especially Magoo. He loves his sheep.
Here are all of the new lambs…
Legacy had twins – Thea and Rowan – by Reno
Fenwick – Wrangler x Liberty
Adelaide – Abraham x Azera
and her brother, Merlin.
Tristan with his pretty blue eyes – Reno x Rae-Ann
and his sister Bess.
Abraham and Infiniti produced this little doll – Guinevere.
My son’s ewe, Lulu, had a ram lamb and…
a ewe lamb by Abraham.
He has named the boy Abraham Jr. and the girl Morgan. He has been a great help with all of the lambs – bottle feeding, pen cleaning, docking tails, and giving shots.
Delight had a ewe lamb by Abraham – Gloriana.
and Flirt had a set of twins last night. A 4-horn ram lamb, Caliburn, and…
a ewe lamb, Juliana – by Abraham.
Abbey, the bottle lamb, is doing really well. If I sneak up really quiet, I can catch her sleeping with her mom and sister.
We have 5 more ewes due at the end of February. I’m sure Veronica can’t wait!
Theron looks like he is reassuring his ewe lamb that she is perfect and beloved just the way she is — all that black not withstanding!
You are so right Michelle 🙂 He really wants to keep her, even though she isn’t marked the way she should be. She is a good snuggler.
a friend of mine has been looking at your lambs for awhile now .. and showed me these last babies and shes the one i picked out .. but i was told about her not being marked right I am glad he loves her 🙂 hehehe she was my favorite 🙂
She isn’t marked right and won’t be registered, but she is going to produce some lovely wool 🙂 She is cute!
I have just loved this post! Such gorgeous pics of the most beautiful lambs ever!
look at all those little ones running! sounds like a non-stop hootenanny! keep up the great work!
🙂
Are you kidding me!
Those are the most beautiful lambs I have EVER seen!!
And that’s saying a lot considering I have a pretty cute one on my patio right now 😀
I love your blog… and your lambs! The Jacob is my favourite breed!
Thank you for stopping by! I love that word – hootenanny 🙂 Brings a smile to my face! Jacobs are pretty special.
That first picture of all the lambs running toward you is worthy of a magazine cover. It conveys a feeling of unbridled joy and young energy and enthusiasm! That Merlin has a to-die-for pixie looking face with wonderful budding horns.
Thanks Chai Chai. I think I am going to submit that picture to Sheep! magazine! Merlin is one that I am watching and will hopefully mature into a handsome ram and stay here. Crossing my fingers for the horns to come in nicely.
Love your babies. We raise goats and kidding season is right around the corner. Your post made my heart flutter with excitement!!!
Despite the late nights and early mornings, I love this time of year!
Beautiful photos, as always, Shannon! And, obviously, very lovely lambs. I’ll just take them all!!
Thanks Shair!
This post is winning the all time highest cute factor. That picture of all those little black and white babies running down that hill stole my heart. You have the cutest little lambs. So great that your son is involved and learning how to take care of them too. That’s what farm life is all about to me 🙂
Thanks for linking up with FF Friday too!
Awww… They are so cute!
Great photos, Shannon. I, too, love that first one of all the lambs running. Great candidate for next year’s JSBA calendar! Seeing all those lambs is getting me ready for Robin’s lambs – coming soon!
Just had to say that your photos are absolutely fabulous, especially the one at the very top! Too cute!
