Lambs have arrived!
Thursday, January 26, 2012 at 11:23AM Exactly at midnight on Sunday the first lambs arrived. The first was a texel who produced twins and then closely followed by 5 more texels. I also have Camilla who is a Ryeland dad and Suffolk mule mum, who this year went to the Texel and Camilla had twins. Princess who is another daughter of Duchy (the Suffolk mule) but to a texel ram, also had twins and for the first time ewe lambs. Don't tell Steve but I intend to keep one of these! The first Ryeland is due on 31 January - but they normally lamb a few days later than anticipated. Dot and Willow, the Greyfaced Dartmoors are also due to lamb soon with the other 4 towards the end of February.
Pictures of the lambs to follow.
