We have spent a lot of time recently watching the sheep.
Mickey built a movable pen for them, 16 foot square, and they love the fresh lush pasture every time they move to a new spot!
The little ones don't have fully developed teeth yet, but they still try to eat everything, right along with the grown-ups, and are increasingly successful.
Fuggles and Lublin have been growing well, and Fearful and Lady have been great mothers.
Lady is certainly the noisiest of our sheep, particularly when she loses track of Lublin.
Both girls have been nursing well. We much prefer this method to bottle-feeding!
Fuggles is a beautiful dark brown, and her face is a lighter shade of brown.
Lublin is all black.
Meanwhile, their proud papa gets his horn stuck in the pen.
The lambs love to play and are becoming more independent of their mothers.
We are so glad we have two lambs to grow up together!
They are great friends with Roscoe too.
We certainly don't miss Netflix with our beautiful sheep to watch!
