And just like that, after three and a half weeks of walking that field every two hours, White ewe has finally lambed -- twins -- unassisted -- and we're done!  15 lambs from 10 ewes so I'm happy with that...  :)  And I'm REALLY happy that we're done!


Here are the lambs from yesterday -- this is Doggie's lamb -- girl -- black with adorable little white whiskers all over her head and face!  She is going to become part of the breeding flock when she is old enough...


And this is Eyebrows' lamb -- also a girl.  Very similar marking-wise to some of the commercials, but her wool is thick and curly -- she will also be bred from when she's old enough.


Chicks are getting big, but not too big to fit under Mummy hen and poke out from under her wing!  :)


Figured out how to do a video -- this is last night at bedtime and poor Shy ewe is having the worst of it but she doesn't seem to mind!  :)


And I'll leave you with last night's moon...  There is also a ewe and her lambs in this photo if you look closely!  :)
