It’s a Boy!

We haven’t chosen a name yet, but Ashlin lambed this morning at about 9:45.

This little guy had a rough start.  His Mama was SO spooky that when we walked outside she got so excited apparently her labor stopped.  We didn’t even go within 50 feet of her…But once I started walking towards her she did go into the catch pen.  And once she tried to run through the fence I caught her and stuffed her into a jug with the babies head and feet hanging out.  It had been a nose and two feet for over an hour, so time to intervene before baby gets overly stressed.  So with just a bit of help he was born and even though she was a real pain in the patootie, she is a great Mama.  Everyone is doing fine so far…

I am breeding for spots so, I got some at least, I wish he had been a girl lamb, but that’s the breaks.

Mary L guessed someone would lamb today between 9 and 10. one of each, so she got a 50%, Michelle is still in the lead.  Must be becuase her husband is a vet….  Mary and Lesley, you can guess again if you want.

Anyone else is also welcome to reguess, Mist and Brietta are left to lamb, Mist was due on Sunday, and Brietta was due today.  Mist is a second year lamber and Brietta is a firstimer.

Here is a picture of Mandy’s kids that were born Sunday morning - I haven’t had much luck getting a good photo of them yet.  I’m tired from being up and all.  Soon…
