My First Lamb was born!!! (PICS)

[boykin2010]

My first lamb was born sometime late last night! For those of you that remember my other discussion about my ewe i thought was about to have a baby, My other ewe had this baby! I didnt even know she was pregnant. Her udder is half of the size of my other ewe i had been talking about. I woke up this morning and went to feed the sheep and i only saw 4 walking around and i started freaking out because i couldnt find the 5th ewe. So i went and looked in the barn and there she was with her lamb. She is solid brown with a little brown on her forehead. It is a girl and she weighs about 5 or 6 pounds. The mother is doing a great job and dried her off and is letting her drink! I am so excited as this is my first lamb ever!!!! The mother is mostly katahdin with a little bit of barbado in her bloodline i think. The father is a purebred barbado.

Let me know if you think of any good names to give to her. I am trying to think of a good name!!!
