Well, it is that time of year again....lambing season. Let me tell you that Emily is straight up having the time of her life!! So many bouncy little things to play with!
So far we have had two singles, four sets of twins and a set of triplets.
We are so proud of our 185% lamb crop with a 100% survival rate! Yay
They are all doing well so far (knock on wood) and seem to be pretty hardy and healthy. Having to put up with Emily hugging all over them they are doing very well.
After they are born we weigh them, tag them, band their tails and if they are a boy we band them...lets just say "elsewhere".
You can see our biggest lamb, Timmy, peeking out of the bucket that is hung from a scale so we can get a fairly accurate reading on their birth weight.
He is actually our biggest so far weighing in at a whopping 18 lbs.
After getting everyone settled in Emily and Hank climbed up into the hay to through some down for the ol girls.
And how else would a two year old get down?
But to take a flying leap off the bales into Uncle Nick's waiting arms.
Thank goodness he is a good catch! LOL
All is well and everyone is happy here on the farm. More pictures and updates to come as more of our ewes lamb out.
