New lambs and snow

Jonna, a Horned Dorset ewe, had one black ewe lamb before I got home from work. Hubby was home. Patience, a Dorset ewe, had one black ewe after dinner and a black ram around 10 pm.

In the meantime, after dinner, it was snowing like crazy. As of 8 am we had 6" on the front deck and 7" in the front yard away from the house. And it is still snowing... We need to leave by 9:30 to make sure we have enough time to make it to see the surgeon about my shoulder in Concord. I'd rather be early than late. I am really hoping that he will operated and fix it once and for all. 😃

 Patience.

She kept trying to hide her lambs.

 Jonna

 Baabaara.

 Nea. Keeping an eye on things.

 3 pens set up in the center aisle of the barn.

 Looking back at the house from the barn.

Zoomed in the catch Jack Black waiting for us.

Lamb pictures

 They are so dark, it is hard to get indoor pictures.

 So, I opened the gate and invited Baabaara to go out.

 One is black and one is charcoal.

 The lambs did not want to go in so some of

the other ewes came in to see them.

That is Betty coming in first.

 Finally, they are out!

But, not far from the barn.

 The yearlings are not liking the new lambs.

 The first way she was trussed up.

She managed to to loosen the harness and

prolapsed her uterus again today.

I took another sheep coat and stitched the 

straps to the sides and then we hooked the 

paddle to the hooks and the end of the straps.

Maybe I can get some pictures tomorrow,

or the next day. Depends how late I work

on Tuesday. And, when the snow starts...

 You'd have thought Patience would have been

the first to lamb. She always has a massive bag.
