Lambing has begun

Vera with Twins

We have been waiting in anticipation for the last week and at last our first lambs have arrived. Vera is one of our original Manx Loaghtan sheep which we have had for three years now and she produced her twins without any fuss. She is extremely proud of them.

It is now four days later and we have got a further two pairs of twins and three singletons from the Manx Loaghtan flock and only one from the Hebrideans. It is still early days and there are lots more very fat ladies on the hillside. It is such an exciting time.
