I thought you might all enjoy this short video I took last
Wednesday afternoon plus a few of this week's lamb photos. Normally we do not
pasture lamb, I saw this ewe at chore time in the morning and thought I should
have put her in a stall but ignored my instinct. By the time I saw what
she was doing a couple hours later, it was too late to move her to the barn for
lambing. Our brown and white llama, Buster, paced in the woods about 50 feet
away during the whole birth like an expectant father. Before the second lamb was
able to get up he had rushed over to greet them. Buster is our bonded llama
meaning he is bonded to the flock, while Dot is the guard, meaning she handles
any intruders. You can see how Buster loves on the babies while Dot sets up an
immediate guard over the Mama and babies. We are soooo loving these
llamas! Both Mama sheep and daughters are doing great!
