Cuteness Overload

Last year hubby and I made the decision to sell off most of my sheep.  There was one ewe who had a home for life, so we decided to keep her, the ram, and 3 other ewes for a total of 5 sheep.  Well this was a hard summer and the ewe who had a home for life plus 2 other ewes died.  Now if you know anything about sheep, they don’t necessarily need a reason to die.

So that left us with one Ram and one Ewe.  Well the ram did his business and 5 months later out popped these cuties.

When we sold off all the sheep, poor Joe (our Llama) was lost.  Llama’s are real good “watch dogs” for lack of better word.  They keep out critters.  Now, Joe is extremely protective of his sheep, especially when there are lambs involved.  He doesn’t attack our dogs, because he knows them, but he still watches them {the dogs} to make sure they don’t hurt the lambs.

These photos were taken on February 4th, the day the lambs were born.

And while the lambs & momma are chillin with Joe up in the pen, until they get a bit bigger, the ram has apparently decided he’s become a cow.  In fact he goes to butting heads with the cows.  Silly sheep :).  At least he’s running with the cows and not by himself!

Happy Wednesday
