Lambs - April 8th

For two and a half days Fibre Works ISP has paced the paddock looking ready to lamb.  For 2 and 1/4 days I checked on her ever two hours.  Then today I decided to heck with it ... and went to run a bunch of errands with Pete.  When we came home ... ISP had twin ewe lambs out of Spring Water Lamb Friday!
 The first one is WillowGarden Steamy, and I like her a LOT.  I expect that she'll stay here.  Her sister, WillowGarden Frosty, is pretty nice as well but looks enough like her dam that I'll likely sell her.
ISP delivered 13 1/2 pounds of lambs!  I think that she'll be a good candidate to be bred to my coloured Merino ram, Panda next year.

Life is good!
