Pet, Patty, and Bunny!

Yay!  We got all three!  Pet, Patty, and Bunny!

"Bunny" is a ram, born to "Astero" and "Acorn."  He is the first lamb from the set of girls we bred to "Acorn."

"Pet" is a ewe born to "Red Heart" and "Duncan."  You can see "Duncan" below.  He is standing in front of the lambing jugs.  Lambing jugs, what a great invention!!!

The panels from our lambing jugs can be rearranged into almost any position I need with the use of removable stakes.  That makes it easy to accommodate the needs of the ewes and lambs.  You just have to love them!

Lambs - Snowy, Snowdrop, and Patty

Hello World!  We have had three lambs this season; still more on the way.

This is "Snowy," he is the first all white lamb we have had!  Of course, he was born the day before a snowstorm.  It never seems to fail that lambs are born during the most miserable weather or right before, ewes seem to have unusual timing!

I should not have been surprised that he was all white when his father, "Duncan" is a beautiful white also.  However, check out his other babies below. . . 

"Patty" was born to my sweetest ewe, "Sage."  "Patty" has earned her name from Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder.  We have been reading the series as a family read aloud and it has been great fun!  Pet, Patty, and Bunny are three of the horses in the story.  Therefore, if we have two more ewes they will be named Pet and Bunny.  

"Snowdrop" was born during a snowstorm this week.  Her mama is a solid moorit with a beautiful chocolate brown fleece.  I am surprised to only see a couple brown spots on her lamb and two brown ears.  April seems to be one of the snowiest months here in Lander, WY.

Stay tuned for more lambing updates. . .
