Baby Lambs








This set of twins was born about 9 this a.m.. It's a boy and girl. They are up and running and jumping. The others are just some of the other sheep. It flurried around all day and that is what we have gotten. That is the most so far this year. (Southern Illinois) Have 7 more to have babies.
