Late Sunday evening first timer Ginger gave birth to a single moorit ewe lamb. She is being a very protective mother, stamping her foot if you go near and giving you the 'hard stare' treatment, as you can see in the photo!
Almost straight after Ginger had finished Alexandra started so it was a very late (early morning !) before I got to bed. Alexandra had twins, both are fawn katmoget, 1 ewe, 1 ram. The ram has unusually long and straight wool for a Shetland. The ewe lamb isn't really yellow - I just got iodine everywhere in the dark!
When I had got up later on Monday morning Darcey was starting. She also had twins, both rams, 1 fawn katmoget and 1 moorit.
During the day, when I popped home for a couple of hours, Jess had a single black ram lamb who is huge! It's a good job Jess is an experienced mother as I am surprised she managed it on her own.
Last thing that day Gooseberry had a lovely grey katmoget ewe lamb.
