Our BFLs

Why did we decide to lamb early this year? I have to remind myself as we clean stalls, get lambing jugs ready, and boot the rams out of their stall to the lean-to in the pasture (that's after DH enclosed half of the open side for added protection). All in very cold temps....brrrr! Anyway, while vaccinating, preparing for lambs, and doing other chores this weekend, I snapped some pics of our flock.

Four rams (three almost yearlings and one almost two years) and ewe lambs in pen behind them.

Our rams.


Nine bred ewes.

Brrrr - it does look cold there. All our snow is gone, replaced with mud.
Best wishes for a successful lambing.
