More Lambs

I now have 8 lambs on the ground, 4 boys and 4 girls. One poor little guy was missed when we moved his mom and now is a bottle baby. He had been stolen by one of the non-pregnant ewes and I found him outside, quite hungry and irate that no one was feeding him. He is safe in the barn with everyone else and is growing into a lovely chubby ram. Here are some photos of the group. A reminder that I will be attending Knitters' Frolic at the Japanese Cultural Centre in Toronto April 26th. Enjoy the pics!

I’ve recently visited your blog and may say that it is both delightful and admirable, no one could have done a better job! The pictures are indeed adorable and the content is extremely interesting. This is the case when I have a chance to call your blog charming and captivating at one time!

About

Name: Hopeful Farm

Location: Embro, Ontario, Canada

From my interests in fibre, I have met many other shepherds and all of our goals are to raise happy healthy animals that give us lovely fibre to spin. I have been working over the past few years to increase the softness and fineness of my shetland sheep while maintaining the breed standard of a well built hardy self sufficient animal that grows well and has few problems at lambing time. I am starting to see the fruits of my labour pay off this year and have been able to launch a line of shetland wool products called HOPEFUL SHETLAND, all from my own animals.
