UGH.....I have had computer problems!!  It's time for an upgrade!
Chloe delivered these tiny katmoget twins Monday, April 14th a ram and ewe lamb.  Both look to have nice fleeces, I would say fawn in color.  As you can see I accidentally tried the 'movie' mode on my camera and
right now it is looks like I've got it in some sort of loop....crazy, guess I need to play around with my
camera a little more too.

Now that the computer is working I will get a tally on my total count in my next post and
hopefully some lamb action pictures......we will try.!

I plan to keep both of these girls, as I have a limited amount of black ewes and hope to put these to my Black whistlestop ram in the future.

  I have had several ewes deliver between my last post and today, but all were crossbred and I just didn't get pics. of them all.  Thank goodness for lamb tags!  I've found that to be the most important task to do immediately and keep a written record.
It's much easier to review a sheet of paper for statistics like....how many lambs born, how many ewes delivered, how many ram lambs, how many ewe lambs.....much easier than trying to count a bunch of bouncing lambs in our 'nursery'.
We have two ewes yet to deliver that will give us our final shetland lambs for this season.  Can wait. 

Nugget

When I went out to the barn this morning Nugget has delivered these two cuties, one ram & one ewe.
I moved them into the nursery and went off to the Farmer's Market to sell my wares.

Everyone is doing well in the nursery this evening.

Eve

This is Eve. http://www.mtn-niche.net/NASSA/nassa_pedigree.php?pregno=S35375
She is our first home grown fine fleeced shetland.  Last year she gave us a fine fleeced little ram that we
kept and added to our group of keeper rams.
This year Eve has delivered another awesome little ram...who I dare say may be finer than his half brother.
This little guy is Katmoget pattern, and I would say fawn in color.  He is just precious.

These lambs are a nice improvement in fleece type from their Dam.
.....expecting more little ones tonight,  as Eve is in labor.  Hopefully more pics. tomorrow.
