Another baby lamb arrived!

We didn't think "Shaggy" was even pregnant, so you can imagine our pleasant surprise when she had this tiny little girl at sun-up a week ago Saturday.

At least its a girl, so she will be joining the flock as a future Mama and will not have a date with the butcher.  There are two more ewes expecting later this month (Yogurt) and in April (Snow White). Really hope to have two sets of twins - three girls and one more boy for the freezer would be great.

Any suggestions for a name?

  1. Since she came at sunrise and was a surprise girl, how about Gloria? I was thinking "Morning Glory" was too long. But I believe there are flowers of that name that are white. Well, they can be white, and other colors.

  2. Aurora is my suggestion. :-) Gorgeous little girl.

  3. Thank you both for the suggested names. I flipped a coin and Aurora won. Its a good fairy tale name used by Disney which also fits in with a few other animals on the farm. The next female gets Glory, then I may just use Disney names for next couple of critters after that...
