Our other 4 horned ewe lamb is "Sara." We had tried to bottle feed her a little as her mother is old and has a problem udder and we lost Sarah's sister Amelia. Sarah's Mother is Moonstruck Thistle and is pictured. She is lilac and blue-eyed and very sweet, but is a high maintenance mother now that she's older - She's 9 this year.






Here are some pictures of Sweet Pea's ewe lamb. She is one of the best 4 horned ewe lambs we have this year. Sweet Pea is in the picture with the lamb grazing. Sweet Pea has the strongest side horns in my flock and a large ewe who has been a very reliable mother. I really like the markings on this ewe lamb and her top horns are going back nicely and are well-spaced.
This is Moonstruck Orchid. This year she ended up having a Jacob/Icelandic cross lamb. Last year she had triplets.


Here is Hazel's other lamb. She is a lot like her brother in that she has nice wool and is two-horned.



Here are some pictures of our two-horned ram lamb. He is wet in these pictures so it makes his wool look a little funny. His mother is Moonstruck Hazel, who has excellent fleece and is and very dependable ewe. She has 4 horns, but this year she had two 2-horned lambs.

This is another view of our black 4-horned ram lamb, grazing alongside his mother, Moonstruck Marilyn.

I took a lot of pictures tonight. It was after a rain, but the light seemed good and the sheep were calm. I'll try to get a selection of our lambs up over the next few days.


We have several nice Jacob lambs that will be for sale. As of today, the best looking four-horned ram lamb is our black lamb out of Moonstruck Marilyn. He broke the tip off on the left side but it's growing back well. He's very well marked and comes from a line of reliable mothers. His grandmother is my most productive ewe, Hazel. His mother and grandmother also have soft fleeces for spinning.
