Below are some videos of the new arrivals. We will update you with photos of the new lambs as they are born.
Our ewes started lambing just over two weeks ago and so far we have 18 lambs from 9 ewes. Most of the new arrivals are sired by our new ram, Border Spartan. The lambs are really impressive and we are delighted with them. It will be a challenge to choose the best ones for showing! We have had two sets of triplets, so we have some pet lambs on our Shepherdess feeder. Our old ewe, Sarah, is ten years old now and is one of the ewes that had triplets so we are only letting her rear one of her lambs. It is her last set of lambs - next year she will be retired and we will keep her to look after our ewe lambs when they are weaned. Below are some videos of the new arrivals. We will update you with photos of the new lambs as they are born.
