First lambs

9/1/2011

We had our first lambs this morning, a set of quads. Two of them were strong and fed from their mother without any problems, but two were very weak and cold and ended up in the kitchen to warm up. As I write (8pm) they are looking well and we hope they will pull through. They are still quite weak but are feeding well.

Lucy and the two lambs, one of them is warming up in the Aga! The yellow stains on their legs is iodine, which we use to disinfect their belly buttons, so they don't get any infections.
