Yes it has to be done, the baby pictures! I started snapping yesterday and I just couldn't stop.
The one with the spots is a boy and we have called him Marty and the fluffy white girl is Annie. They are named after my friends Martin and Ann that we are going over to France to see today.
I have had sheep here for years and years, but these have to be the cutest lambs I have ever seen.
Descisions on their futures already made. Annie to join the band of ladies as a breeding sheep and Marty has already been banded (ouch!) and will be kept as a pet for Idgy. She had the most amazing pet sheep called Amos who has had his pix in various glossies beside his proud little owner. Unfortunately he dies last summer and I had promised Idgy she could have her pick of any future lambs as a replacement pet. Well here he is, Marty.
It ended up as a very sheepy day yesterday. I even managed to get Alexander to come up and sheer the other ladies. Now they are all in their summer best and hopefully will avoid nasty fly strike.
Well that's it, cute baby pix done. I'm off to France tonight so will be back with lots of photos next week.
Keep happy.

Hi Karon, those lambs have just got to be the cutest I've ever seen! How lovely for Idgy to have one as a pet.
Have a great holiday in France, look forward to seeing lots of pics when you return.
Best Wishes!
