Lambs are born!

This morning brought a very exciting surprise! My lovely wife ventured out in the rain to collect the morning chicken eggs and noticed Rainey (our llama) sitting in the pasture in his "guard position". Curious what he was guarding, she walked over to peer in the shelter. There in the straw was not one, but TWO freshly born lambs. So new, they were not even completely dry! One was resting in the straw and the other was up wondering around his new world. Mom and both twins seem to be doing well.

We got a few pics of the happy threesome (mom and the twins) out for a bit of hay. The pictures speak for themselves! These little guys are only hours old in these pictures.

What is that hiding behind Rainey and the mom?

There is one!

And there is the other.. glued to mom.
