Theresa the Tiebreaker

When Theresa went into labor last night, we had 14 lambs: 7 ewes and 7 rams.  Theresa broke our tie with a ewe lamb.




We've named her Quartz.  Quartz is black and white spotted all over.  She has sugar lips, so the black will probably lighten to gray.  It's really hard to say what's she's going to look like when she grows up.



Theresa was a first time mother and the youngest ewe to be lambing this year (she's 2 years old).  She is doing a great job so far, even with interference from her neighbors Calico and family.
