Well, last night at my bed time check on the ewes I discovered Bess in labor. Needless to say I didn't get much sleep last night! At about 4:30 this morning Bess gave us this awesome black ram lamb sired by our F1 Jamie son, North Wind James.

Lugthart Fairy Slipper

Fairy Slipper lambed overnight on April 27th. Her twin ewe lambs were found separated in the morning. Mom is definately showing preference for one over the other. This is Xena our little warrior. She is nursing fine as long as we are holding mom. We are hopeful Mom will change her mind and take responsibility for this beautiful little girl. These girls are sired by Lil'Country Rugger.


Kimberwood Xena

Kimberwood Princess

Obviously this little girl got her name because mom favors her most!

Bramble Meg

Meg is in labor! She is bred to our F1 Jamie son, North Wind James. This will be the first lambs from James. She has been digging away, laying down and then 10 seconds later she gets up again. She has been baaing away looking for her new lamb every time she gets up. So far she has not been pushing.....time to go check her again!

Meg did lamb. She had twin black ram lambs, unfortunately one was stillborn. Pics of her surviving lamb once he dries off.

Boy Stephen, you do fine work!

More Lambs!

Last night was a busy night. Three more ewes lambed:

Kimberwood Bronwyn
This is a black ewe lamb out of BluffCountry Bella Bambina and sired by Windswept Banning. What more can we say about her? Since her dad is a mioget HST and her mom is a full sister to an HST we were wishing for a little more splash than what we got. She is a very nicely built ewe though who carries spots and modified genetics!

Kimberwood Frank
This is a musket ram lamb out of Thistle Keep Red Deer and sired by Lil'Country Rugger. Notice the nice size horn spots? Not what we were hoping for out of a polled ram. But is to be expected.

And last but not least:
Kimberwood Dazzle

A mioget flecket (possibly yuglet) ram lamb out of Windswept Bliss and sired by Sheltrgpines Arturo. This guy was a total surprise last night. While I was inside with the first two ewes waiting on them to lamb, Bliss had him outside in the dark. She really was not looking like she was going to lamb last night or she would have been in with the us.

Yeah!! We have spots!
