I never expect my first time moms to have twins. In my experience, it's rare for them to do so. Peanut herself is a single, so it's even more unlikely.
Peanut delivered her first lamb around 10 AM. He's a white ram, and we've named him Aspen. He looks like his momma (and other relations of Sandy).
The second lamb followed at around 10:30. We've named her Acacia. She's gulmoget (Shetland pattern that's dark on the top and light on the belly with markings by the eyes) just like grandma Elvira. I think she's dark brown, rather than black, but she's so dark it's hard to tell.
You wouldn't know by looking at them, but their daddy is Chert.
