Lambs


The sheep have been lambing for a week or two now, so here are some photos of the wee pets.




Big Brother likes to watch them at their mealtime. It makes him feel like they're family, sitting around the kitchen table feeding trough.






 Aren't these twins adorable!




 They weren't scared of me at all, which means one of two  things: 
they are bold little babies, or, 
I am becoming more croftified, and therefore more acceptable to these sheep.

I think we'll stick with them being bold.




 ((Gorgeous)) Shhhh. I'm saying it quietly, because Jackson was a bit upset when he heard me using adjectives like 'gorgeous', 'adorable', and 'cute', and realised I wasn't talking about him. Oh, us Mums have to be so careful, don't we?



Perfect late afteroon: they have sunshine; and they have my company. What more could they ask for?

  4. Such cute sheep! What breed are they? We are very novice at the sheep thing around here...we have suffolk/hamp cross....and the children who raise them, sell them at auction in August...and we've only done this for two years. We have 3 babies at present...and they are so adorable! But I don't think Jackson has anything to worry about! He can certainly keep up w/ that cute factor!

  7. Love the pictures!!! And yes, I do believe you would have a jealous puppy.

    (Kathie, our black lab, thinks Scottish labs have it a bit better than she does!)

  12. Lol, Mum, it's been a while since you've been that far in a croft! Maybe you are becoming croftified.
    BTW, the sheep are the blackface breed

  15. Cutie pie lambs! Love your pics. I think the lambs were so comfortable because they sensed what a good Mum you are. "If she can hug on that pup, surely she'll love on us too!"
