These little guys are about 30 minutes old. Kinda wobbly and tentative. You can see the umbilical cords under the tail of the ewe. She's attentive; making soft bleating noises that are being responded to by the lambs. 
She licks them over carefully. It was a really nice day today; perfect day to be born. Warm and sunny. Welcome to the world, lambs!

Bruce what cute pictures! We spoke today on the phone and I was hoping to come out and "Process" a few chickens I am looking to purchase about 20 birds to start. I think this will be a good way for me to get an idea of what I am dealing with while planning around a budget that had been used to a monthly food bill ;) I am hoping through the next few months to be able to plan for poultry seasons and save up accordingly. I hope this is ok for this new organic faming enthusiast. I will be posting on my face book to see if anyone will want to come and broaden their horizons with me lol. so there is a chance there will be more than just me! or at the very least an order for me to Process chickens for others as well. I will keep you informed about #'s I am hoping to be able to come out on sunday if that would work. I am would like to come for the "Pig Processing" eventually as well but I think this is a great way to get myself introduced!
