Lambing Season - Week 3 Begins


We are now two weeks plus into lambing season. Three jacob ewes have lambed so far - two sets of twins and one single. The surprising thing so far is that they are all
ewe lambs. In this picture the lambs are hanging out together while their mothers are eating their daily ration of grain. This year kidding and lambing season will be very drawn out. The mule flock should start lambing next month, followed by the Shetlands in March and finishing up with the goats in April.

  1. How cute!
    Be sure to post some pics of the mules. I'm intrigued with the cross. Also - could I get a handfull of the Jacob mule fleece for my breed display?
