2012 Lambs start to arrive


Welcome "Dillon" !

Glory delivers a single black ram lamb this morning. Both are purebred Bluefaced Leicester.

Upon approaching the barn this morning, I heard the "choir" of ewes, singing the blessing and welcoming song. And low and behold, there was Glory just finishing up her unassisted delivery. At first I didn't see the lamb. He was pitch black. But Glory's utterence and maternal instincts were bold and obvious. There must be a lamb in there somewhere. In the dark corner of the barn, there he was, uttering his little "Mommy" song.

Praise the New Day !
