Lambing 2014: oops, things got crazy...so this post is over due by 1 year!!!

In 2014 the following Navajo-Churro ewes were bred to my BFL ram, Theodore.

Here are the results:


The maiden ewe, Acacia, had two lambs: ram lamb Feleex (pictured with mom)

and ewe lamb, Oleevea, shown here at 6 mo.

                                                                     



Feleex at 2 mo.




=========================================================

Ceeeola also had twins this year...

Here is her ram lamb, Birteee, at 6mo.
                                                        

...and her ewe lamb, Dellae Mae, at 6mo.





=======================================================

Yahzeee had a HUGE, strapping, ram lamb this year: Herculeez
  (he had to be hand delivered........a day that will live in infamy for all three of us!!! ) 

Don't be fooled by the pic....he looks small here,
but his mother will beg to differ with you.

                                                                           Here he is again, alongside his mom, at two months of age, and he doesn't lack much being the same size as she.

Gentle Giant...
