2013 Lambs

116 Lambs on the ground. Here goes for the list. 

Sommarang Gilroy-black, fine fleeced, horned and spotted. I'm hoping his groups throws lots of spots and fine fleeces.

PS23 Fife-moorit, F1 Orion fine fleece and fully horned out of a horned ewe. Long and deep bodied.
Flourance-white F2 Skeld Lambs: white ram, moorit ram
Fairlie-fawn F1 Orion. This is a linebreeding, hpoing he make the lambs crimpier and she makes them silkier as she is not very crimpy, but very silky. Lambs: moorit ram, moorit ewe

Hydrangea-white F1 Skeld Lambs: white ewe, (black ram-died)
Forsythia-lt grey F2 Greyling Lambs: musket ram, black ewe

PS23 Hector-white F1 Jings super fine fleece. Fine boned and small-my smallest ram, refined. (Not undersized, just by comparison to my other rams.) I was actually going to use Fairlight my other F1 Jings who is much more meaty and a flock book type, but decided to use him  at the last minute instead.
Under The Son Aran-sheala Lambs: black ewe, black ewe with small white spot on head
Under The Son Hopi-sheala/dk brown horned ewe F2 Skeld Lambs: black ram, white ewe

Gilroy's lambs: 12 rams, 13 ewes

Fife's lambs: 8 rams, 6 ewes

Hector's lambs: 2 rams, 5 ewes

All Shetlands together: 22 rams, 24 ewes

Coopworth X Shetland Lambs: All whites 12 rams, 16 ewes out of 15 ewes

IleDeFrance/Dorset sired Lambs: All whites 22 rams, 16 ewes out of 22 ewes

2 girls cycled around and will be late-one of the IleDeFrance's and one of Gilroy's-Eastwind a spotted emsket. Just when I thought what nice spotted lambs they would have. Oh well.  I have 9 does due to kid starting today. Then I will be done!

I should have several purebred ewe lambs for sale as well as a few purebred Shetland ram lambs. I also will have white Coopworth X Shetland ewes for sale. The Coopworth X Shetland have very nice silky and shiny fleeces and a med. sized ewe that is a great commercial ewe with a nice handspining quality fleece .
