They bring back so many memories. We...How lovely. They bring back so many memories. We used to have a few sheep on the farm I grew up on - mostly for meat for us. There was an old guy - sort of a hermit - who lived over the mountain from us and he had lots of sheep. He used to ring us whenever he had a ewe who either died in birthing or was unable/unwilling to care for her lamb. We had 14 at one point. I loved them. Can still remember all their names. We had the few, too, who were just too weak to make it. So many mornings, we drove over before school to pick up another little orphan and bring them home and warm them in front of our wood stove.<br /><br />Unfortunately, they grew up way too friendly with our dogs and as a result no natural fear of wild dogs or dingoes, so some met not nice ends. I remember one little bloke - he used to go hunting with the dogs and try to chase the dingoes. <br /><br />We had such fun playing with the lambs and feeding them each day. Have to be one of my favourite pets ever. Hope your kids enjoy these as much. No doubt my mother felt as you do - busy on a farm and already with way too much to do - but the memories you're creating will last your children into their adult years. Take care.Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01080558446789769020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-60719186021268467842011-08-18T22:33:27.399+10:002011-08-18T22:33:27.399+10:00they are soooo cute but i imagine a lot of work......they are soooo cute but i imagine a lot of work......looking forward to hearing your newsGoogy Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15644297746800909939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-49612029178621794992011-08-18T18:56:09.628+10:002011-08-18T18:56:09.628+10:00Where you been luv?

We were visiting a holiday farm when the lambs arrived (the local farmers didn't look after the orphans, they dropped them off to the holiday farm) and our kids named them. Pencil, Thing, and no clue what the other one was! When we went back 6 weeks later the kids were surprised to find that the lambs names had been changed! Maree seems excited that it is raining at her place.

One of my sister's ewes had triplets last spring. They lost mom and two of the three but were able to save "Emma". Problem is, Emma still thinks she is a little lamb and runs to her surrogate mother whenever she sees her (my sisters DIL) and tries to jump up in her arms like she did when she was about the size of Coke and Daisy. They have also tagged Emma so that she won't ever go to market nor be bred. Hope all goes well for you and the twins.
