We began our lambing season Friday evening. This ewe's name is Oregon, a grey Katmoget
She delivered two beautiful Katmoget ram lambs. I didn't get a lot of 'hands on' time with them, as she was doing quite well by herself.
She was bred with Sheltering Pines Grand Luxe, a very fine fleeced fawn ram.
I'm sure either of these two little guys would make someone a great ram.
One of my Shetland crossbred ewes also delivered last evening. I put my crossbred group together with three rams, a purebred white shetland, a shetland/rideau arcott cross and a shetland/cormo cross.She delivered two ram lambs, one white and one black. Everyone is doing well.
We have about 24 more ewes to deliver, many of my finer fleeced ewes I have bred with Grand Luxe.
Can't wait to see what we get.........just hope it's not a ram year as it has started so far.
Oh, and you were right Michelle, my crossbred group did not breed earlier as I had hoped......genetically they're just not inclined to breed in September.
Happy Lambing to everyone!!
