Lambing update

Lambing has not quite finished for us this year as there are two ewes who still have to deliver. So far we have eight lambs. There are three sets of twins and two singles. Of the eight, six are ram lambs and two are ewe lambs. One of the ewes needed a bit of help to deliver but otherwise there have been no further problems. 

The lambs are all between 7 - 14 days old and have entered the playful stage where they jump up and down on the spot, or run around together. They seem to be off to a good start.

    1. Sunny but a bit chilly. The lambs are playing whilst their mothers are munching some feed.

  2. Gamboling lambs is a sure sign that Spring has arrived. Planted my early potatoes today.
