Syrah's kids

Buck kid
Doe kid

Syrah had triplets yesterday. She had a buck and two doe kids. One doe kid was stillborn. The dead one had funny ribs as well. I don't know if it is coming from the sire or the dam (Syrah is China's dam.) I won't be using the same buck this fall so I guess I'll find out.

Brownie the last sick sheep is finally better. She started nibbling at hay on Mon. on Wed. she started chewing her cud (and eating full force.) She was off feed for two weeks! I was surprized and glad she made it!

  1. Oh they are SO cute! Interesting about the rib thing...I hope you don't get anymore like that.

  3. I don't use BO-SE. A local organic (cow) dairy farm does.
