Guinea's Lambs

WillowGarden Guinea AI had twins today out of Lil'Country Greyson, an At/Ag scurred ram with tons of UK genetics, an awesome fleece, and STRUCTURE! He is out of Juliann Budde's breeding program. I am so pleased with this pair of lambs! Guinea is a favourite of mine out of another Cleome/Iris ewe and Todhill Glayva.

Guinea is ED, so I breed her to double patterned rams. Thus, lambs with patterns are NOT ED.
The ewe lamb above is gulmoget and thus NOT ED. She is WillowGarden Blythe, named after a small town near where me ex-wife is from (also Alice Monroe's stomping ground). She is a doll!
The little boy, WillowGarden Clinton, appears to be black. That means that he is ED. If he goes grey, then he isn't ... but there is no indication of grey just yet. Even if he IS ED, I'm thinking that he might grow up nice enough to use for breeding to some double patterned ewes. He is either gulmoget, grey, katmoget, grey katmoget, or a gul/kat. And his fleece sure looks even and crimpy. It would be fun to see his lambs!

Life is good!
