Zest's single ram lamb is HUGE! He's almost as big as his dam and towers over all the other lambs.
When I saw him with the ewe lambs this morning (that's him, behind Chance, at the mineral feeder in the barn), and chasing around some of the adult ewes, I decided that it's time to separate the ram lambs.

~ BLING ~
and
~ MOON SHADOW ~ (the moose!).
I left Thorn in with Rosie for a few more days because he's the smallest of all the ram lambs and Renegade in with Alice 'till this weekend as I don't like to pull twins off at the same time and she's got quite a large udder.
What a great photo op!! I've had a difficult time getting interesting pictures the last couple of weeks because all the lambs want to do is graze.
Nothing like a little separation anxiety to get some nice photographs!
Now I've got to go SPIN before I leave for work.....
Great photos Nancy - and of course, gorgeous lambs :O) Love the photo of the lamb and the chickens!
ReplyDeleteI hate weaning time as well but I know it's necessary. I learned the hard way what a 3 1/2 month old ram lamb can do :(
Good luck - it will be over soon!
Wow, White Night is GORGEOUS! All of the boys are, but boy, he really caught my eye! :)
ReplyDeleteGosh, time flies so quickly doesn't it? They've only just been born and it's weaning time! They look great :o)
