The lambing started last night! Dandelion was first, and she birthed two beautiful lambs during the night - a blonde female and a black male. It was odd, because when I woke up this morning, I had a feeling that something had happened. Then, during the day, Veslemøy had two as well, but so far she is struggling a bit with grasping what has happened, it being her first time and all. Hopefully she'll land and let her lambs drink from her; thus far we have to hold her still so they can latch on. We are positive that it will be okay. And, yep, as I wrote this, Mr. Payne came in and said that Cottonsocks has had a lamb, too. That marks the beginning of the first lambs born here by mothers born here (if you get what I'm trying to say) - second generation Zoo Payne sheep, that is! Yay!
It will be exciting to see what the night brings.
