Thief!

I have heard about older ewes.....sometimes, when they are getting ready to lamb....they might just decide to steal another ewe's new born lamb instead! Well....my Brownie ewe, mother of the Kat/Barb ewe... grandmother of the first born lamb....looking all sweet and innocent here...........decided to steal her very own granddaughter...who is a week and a half old! Poor lamb was so confused...and very wet from her Gma's incessant licking! To keep the family unit intact and functional....I put Brownie in Jug-Jail......while Barb quickly whisked her lamb outside! What a fuss!!! Just a few hours later, Brownie realized...she must go through the "Eve original sin" pain of childbirth....and she produced yet another...... single ram lamb!

All is quiet at Rocking Dog Ranch for now.....4 more ewes to go. Visualizing tiny girl lambs with goggles....just like this.....

Seize the day!
