The flock started lambing 2 weeks ago and we have had 87 lambs born (a couple of twins were DOA) but lots of bouncy thriving lambs. It has gone smoothly and I am down to the last 8 ewes (7 of these will go in the next few days and then we will wait until around April 9 for the last.
As promised I am now posting photos of my Bluefaced Leicester ram "Beechtree Glen Roth" (sire of this year's Mule lambs), and Muleflock 18 Red (1/2 British Suffolk ram) "Sully". We refer to Sully's lambs as Sullicopters (see photo above of one of his lambs---ready for take-off!).
Will try to update more often and share farm/flock/family news.
