Some lambs will be born tonight.at least 2 sheep in labour by the looks of it.

Nice picture of Dan outside feeding the rare breed sheep. Back about 90 minutes on the video feed.

Images are still shifting from one cam to another but nothing is moving.

One of the lambs is up on mother's back - piggy-back style. Your ticket to ride, baby.

Fixed, I guess - beautiful western sky.

I can hear them but have no picture.

C171,And the rest

No signal.

Those lambs in the foreground are really lively - one in particular which tried to escape when Howard was leaving the pen.

Beautiful sky right now.

There's dear Howard hard at work.

Two of the ladies are having a little nuzzle and conversation in the long barn - one probably saying to the other, "Why is this taking such a long time - I'm fed up!"

It's fun to watch those babies exploring.

Thanks Lynda for removing those buckets.

Hello Helen, Good Luck ^ stay warm if you can, hopefully you don't need to go out for awhile. We have sunshine here but a bitter cold blustery wind, feeling as if it might soon bring some snow like they have up north so I hear.

Hello, everyone. We have 15 cms of snow (about 6 inches and blowing) here, and I hear cars trying to make their way uphill with some difficulty. Enjoy your spring flowers if you have any.

Not quite Gradon - just cutting up some seasoned stuff making a bit of room for the beech

Good morning All, ..just!..once again. Hope everyting today is continuing to go as well as hoped.

I can hear the chain saws at work on the old beech tree!

Morning all, I see first born and mum have been released out of their pen

Morning Al

Hello

Good morning

Morning all

They are very funny when young,and full of life !

Hanha ha! The white lamb from the first triplets litter was just standing on top of his lying-down, resting Mom. Like she was a mountain!

Thanks, Helen, form the clarification. I saw the latter but later, so didn’t know there had been a third. Thanks all for updates. I’ve been following as I can 😊

No Kristin, I think those triplets are in fine form. Another ewe had triplets this morning and one of those died, but the other two are in a small pen in the longer barn. You'll notice them because one of the lambs is all black and very playful. Right now he's asleep.

...oh, the triplets I was referring to were born 25 Feb. I still seem to count 3. Sorry for any losses, though.

Hello, all. I posted here for a bit, but haven't posted for a while. Life just got busy (some eldercare things). I've been following this wonderful lambing season. Saw the births (with amazing help from Dan and Lynda (hope I got names right), yesterday! Amazing! Just read one of triplets died. Was it one of these I witnessed? I've gotten attached... Oh and little black lamb, yes!
