Sassafras' face markings make me smile. Doesn't she look like she is smiling back at you ? She has reason to smile though ( if sheep smile). She had twin ewe lambs 2/22/2013. I am keeping both of her lambs and am so excited about them.
The little girls are learning how to walk and suckle within the hour of birth. A true miracle when you think about it , and I do think about it.
The sisters snuggle down together in the grass hay.
Sassafras & I are so happy about these wee little girls. I can't tell how many horns they have, but that will be evident in due time. All that matters now is Mama and daughters are healthy and thriving, and that I love them.
Oh, this is so sweet! I love them already!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank-you Marlene, you must see my new ewe lamb, born just this past Sunday!
DeleteThey are beautiful! What kind of shearing equipment would you recomend me?
ReplyDeleteI do not shear my sheep, my neighbor does. If you want to ask him I'll give you his e-mail.
DeleteThank-you for your kind comment about my sheep, I love them.
Darling! I love Sassafras' smile... and indeed it is a smile!
ReplyDeleteIt has always been a dream of mine to have sheep.
ADORABLE!
Yvonne, don't give up on your dream. I could never have imagined having sheep when I was younger, and now that I do, I could never have imagined how much they have enriched my life.
