Eric had a little lamb



This is probably the tiniest and latest lamb I've ever seen.
It's twin was still born unfortunately
Eric didn't expect this one to survive the night.
One week later and it's slowly looking stronger

Such a sweet baby! Mom looks half sheep and half goat! Do you know what breed she is?

Well done ewe !! we had tiny twins once and only one survived.

or is that late-bleater...not certain at all...
globalgadabout19-Jun-2013 21:55
with sturdy and fierce looking mum like that, this little late-bloomer could well thrive..

We've been seeing new-borns this week too - does anyone know if ewes can hang onto their lambs for good weather?

Eric's been through it alright... time to put baby to bed and hop in the dip :)

mum looks as if she's been in the wars, but good to see lamb looking so perky
Brian Samuel19-Jun-2013 20:44
Hurray for the little one! Mind you Mum looks determined to look after it.
