Am I not a lovely little lamb?
but my Mom thought otherwise
she would't feed me, you know why?
I am a SEA in disguise



Here you see my sis DOREEN
all my milk she will be drinking
I will play with her real soon
to my Mom I will be winking



DEVINE I am, that's for sure
little white spots on my back
in the corner is LONGJOHN
boy oh boy he sure is black



KIT and MARSHA our names
we both were born only yesterday
and because Titia loves our Mom
there's big chance we are to stay

For the second time now this ewe rejects her first born and takes only the second one. That's not a good motherly instinct, so I don't think I'll keep that ewe.

This ewe is 10 years old and has always been a good mother. She's very caring for her little ones.

This ewe suffered from slight inflammation, but with a shot from the vet she was alright and let her lambs drink her milk. The lambs have a beautiful deep darkbrown color, but will both get white fleeces.

Ahh Titia, they are so adorable!  Why would that one ewe always reject her first born?  Is that normal?  You know, I am becoming so interested in this I am beginning to think I should get a few of my own sheep and start a little farm.  I'm serious!  They are so cute and lovable.
Lovely pics and poem.
Thanks for keeping us up to date on the new babies.  
Hugs.

Ahhhh you all deserve it sweet friends.

One or two to go, but that will take a few more weeks of waiting.

Ah, they're all so cute. You have a whole herd of pipsters right in your own backyard!!

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

TitiaDear~
It brings great joy to have you share these precious lambs with us~

I think you are just wonderful to take the time out of your VERY BUSY 'mothering' of the lambs to let us know in such adorable poetry how they are~

And is there to be a 'TITIA' among the lambs ?
Well ... there certainly should be !
*Hugs*

I'm glad you're happy. No there's not a 'Titia' in the herd (never thought of that LOL).
For the ones not choosen this year: there will be a next and a next and a next.
LOL I don't have to pick my brain again for names, only for little rhymes, ha ha.

Titia

Well, I'm off, feeding all those hungry
bears. If you have specific questions, please mail me if you want an answer.

Awww Titia, these are such cute little lambs.
I've been trying to talk my husband into getting a little lamb.
