Lambing time

Lambing time is here and so far I have one very poorly sheep, she isnt due till next sunday but the poor girl is having problems ,hope she makes it, but my first lamb from another ewe was born today and it is a girl so here is a pic so you can all see her, she was about 30 mins old and just standing in this photo.

I miss my old ram.
I alway loved lambing season, and hated it at the same time.

My ram got himself stuck in the fence at the back of the pasture and hung himself
He was a beautiful Suffolk bottle baby.

Ohhhhh look at that precious little baby

I really hope your ther mama starts feeling better soon

Awwww, sweet! Lots of for the ewe that's not doing so well, and that you manage to get some sleep!

Aw, what a little sweetheart! Hope your other ewe comes around and presents you with another little love.

Awwww so cute, I really hope your other sheep is ok and you get another healthy little lamb xx

What a precious baby. I had a pet lamb when I was about 10 years old and still have a real weakness for them.

Oh how cute! My mother had always had a special thing for sheep; especially lambs! A lady at our church has one now that she is bottle feeding. Not sure if my mother has been over to see it; they are so cute!!

Oh so sad poor boy

I love lambing time, but I get to see the lambs and not have to do the hard work! Good luck with it all.

The little baby 1 is so cute

Oh, it's just adorable! Hope everything goes OK with the new moms and their babies!

How beautiful are they, thanks for sharing this sweet photo. I hope the mommy to be won't have a hard time delivering and she will be ok to enjoy her babies.

adorable little lamb

Oh, I have such a silly soft spot for sheep -- and your little baby lamb is precious! Maybe you will post pictures now and then, so we can watch him grow up?

Oh how adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for your ewe that's doing poorly.

My grandfather raised sheep (and chickens). He was actually quite famous for breeding Cheviots and Merinos, and 20+ years after his death is still honored by the American Cheviot Society. His farm was in Pennsylvania and we lived in Illinois, so I was never there for lambing. But we were there every August, in time for the shows at the State Fair, which was always a lot of work but a lot of fun.
