Shedding has begun!!

Spring shedding has finally gotten underway!




Crowded Lamb Creep

When a bunch of lambs want the creep feeder at the same time it can sure become a crowded place!

When a little black lamb...

When a little black lamb (Ebony) curls up to sleep with her white haired mother.. and mum is wet from a light spring rain... the little shed out white hairs sure do show up on little Ebony.

Halter Training!

Here is 83Y a lovely purebred Ram Lamb. He is learning all about the halter and is doing very well so far. His Mum is 5U and Dad is Buster. He has a lovely hair coat that shines. He knows he is a ram and chases the ladies already. He will be weaned at 10 weeks to get him away from the ladies. Here he is 7 weeks old and growing very fast. He is a twin.
We also have our bottle lambs (future front lawn mowers). Here is picture of Pebbles. She is a nice little cross ewe lamb with a lovely hair coat. Her mum is Spotty and her Dad is Buster. Her mum is raising her brother and we are raising her. She also chilled a bit.
Here is an updated picture of our little Win D Acres Mascot! Buddy showing off his halter breaking and his big "W". He is a little cross lamb. His Mum is Lucy and his Dad is Buster. He thinks Cassandra is his mum as she has been bottle feeding him. He chilled badly at birth and had to be in the house. His mum then rejected him but raised his sister just fine. He is a little fluffy... (okay chubby) for a bottle baby.

43 (Rosie) and her big boy Humongous Harry

An updated photo of Humongous Harry and his proud Momma Rosie (43). He is one big boy!

Odo ( WIN 12X )

This is Odo WIN 12X wearing his harness. He has been turned out with 4 lovely ladies for fall lambs. He is a lovely ram and very easy going. He has just started to shed out in these photos.

Mammoth and Twins

This is a picture of Mammoth and her twins. The twins were just very little here as they were only a few days old. She gave us a lovely ewe lamb and a ram lamb. Good job Mammoth.

I am just so cute!

Am I cute or what. I just know you are looking at Me! Me Me Me... it is all about ME!

Bambi

This is little Bambi, She is a triplet out of 304T. Momma had a hard time and needed some assistance as the little ones were a bit tangled up. It took a lot of work to get this girl going but she is doing fine now. She was 9lbs at birth and has two wonderful sisters. Little Bambino is a bottle baby as she had to come in the house long enough that Mum rejected her. She had a little fluid on her back due to the difficult birth. These pictures were taken a couple of weeks ago. She has grown since and the lump on her back is gone. She is really looking good.
