It's Odd...Or Maybe Not

Chipotle and Cayenne

Theresa's lambs are both friendly.  It's odd because she's a bit on the skittish side.   Sometimes, though, she does surprise us.

Cayenne checks out what her brother is doing.

Chipotle thinks my hands are udders.  Ow.

Theresa doesn't get as close as her lambs.

Chipolte and Cayenne's visit was interrupted by Barack O'Llama, who wanted all the attention.  I ate banana bread before going to the pasture, something I will never do again.  He was convinced I had bananas on my person-- or at least should have.

"Those are my bananas!"

One of Pistachio's lambs is in the creep feeder.  Most of the lambs have figured it fairly easily compared to years past -- whew!

Cilantro has all the food to himself.

Pistachio is trying to get in...but not for her lambs.  She's all about the food. 

Pistachio demonstrates how the creep feeder works.
 We'll forgive Pistachio for being obnoxious, because her lambs are gorgeous.  Here's Pistachio's other lamb, Coriander.

Coriander.  His fleece is fantastic!

Chamomile stays will her mom most of the time, unlike the little ram lambs.  They're like a little posse--until they're hungry.

Chamomile and Oregano stick with their mothers.

Hazel is looking pregnant.  Unfortunately, this is not too odd due to the ram breaks in January and February.  I'm hoping she's just fat, like Elsie who still looks pregnant.
