Well, you guessed it, Josie had 2 little rams Saturday afternoon. They are quite a bit smaller than the other lambs, but are just as cute. It doesn't seem like they are getting near enough milk, although the mother is making milk- just possibly not enough. I have been supplementing a little bottle milk a couple of times a day for the time being. This is Virgil here, still quite messy from his mother lambing in the dirt. He has a big brother LeRoy.
And this is "Howie" the lamb born on Friday, all cleaned up and curly.
This little video "get up brother" is Virgils first attempts to get up. Once he did make it up, the first priority of course, was finding the milk machines. He's pretty small, but very determined!
Hope everyone had a good Memorial Day weekend!
Do you have any more ewes left to lamb? What are you going to do with all of those boys?
