The Lord's my shepherd I'll not want.He makes me down to lie in pastures green : he leadeth me the quite waters by. My soul he doth restore again; and me to walk doth make within the paths of righteousness, even for his own names sake...

Eastwind had a lamb
PS23 Eastwind had a "black" krunet ewe lamb out of PS23 Craigrothie an F1 Skeld. She is an F2 Skeld.
My "summer" lambing has begun. I had 4 yearlings who did not have any udders when everyone else was lambing and I had left Craigrothie in until January soo I can have June lambs. One more is defiantly bred, but I can't tell with the others as I have not cought them and I can't see under there.
Edit:
Here is a picture of Craigrothie (from the winter.) He did have more wool on his cheeks, but I had to trim it off as he had decorated himself with burrs.

She's a cutie! Any photos of the sire on your blog anywhere?
ReplyDeleteI added a picture of him to this post.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Say, can I use his photo for my aberrant horn page on my website? I'll give you and your credit, some free advertising...Let me know. :)
ReplyDeleteSure you can use his picture. Do you also want a picture of his yearling son who has 2-3in bone knobs?
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I'd love to see his son. :)
ReplyDeleteThose are aberrant horns?
ReplyDeleteWhat color is Eastwind registered as? I love how grey she is!
Eastwind is an emsket yuglet, socket or HST. I think her lamb will be Sheala or Emsket. (Craigrothie's dam was Sheala.)
ReplyDeleteCraigrothie has abberent horns and has thrown 3 polled ram lambs out of 2 different ewes. (He has aslo thrown many long scured ram lambs.) Craigrothie got his poll gene from Holy Hills Onyx his dam.
