It was a really exciting morning, with Phil out checking on mum before 6am. By 7am, the little lamb was born. As it's a girl, we have named her (or rather, Ava has named her) "Dorothy, because she is so sweet" - too cute!
Our ewe is doing a great job as a first time mother and has stayed close by all day, not allowing the other ewe's to come too close to her baby.
At feeding time this afternoon, Phil briefly held onto little Dorothy so she wouldn't get squashed in the frenzy!
As soon as mum was finished her dinner, little Dorothy was looking for hers.
What a special day on the farm.
So so adorable!! Aww! {stopped by after seeing your post over @ Soulemama}
ReplyDeleteYes, they are! We have eight new lambs now. It's a magic time here.
