Yesterday, this little black lamb was born. It is a little spitfire and the mom is doing a great job.
Two days ago, a different yearling had this cute little thing.
And here is super-mom Cora (Julia's bottle lamb from last year) with her January lamb Mora. Mora is growing like crazy and is looking strong and huge.
The bigger lambs congregate together constantly. Here some of them are having a party over along the fence line. I can't help but compare them to teenagers, hanging out with their friends far from the watchful eyes of their moms.

since you raise sheep as food mostly, is the color of the fleece a determining factor in which ones you keep?
Love the dark fleeced ones. So cute.
where's the mall?
Well, as long as they don't start smoking cigarettes and piercing their belly buttons it'll be okay.
And, go Cora! Way to mother! So does Julia consider herself a Grandma now?
I can't beleive how big Mora has grown. Cora looks so calm
What breed is Cora? She looks sort of Shetland in the fleece but not the face. But I don't raise sheep, so what do I know. I just can't get enough of the lamb photos.
What do you do with the "nervous nellies", (reluctant moms)? Is there a way you can help them? Love the pictures!
