Hooray! The first lamb arrived on the scene yesterday here at Struan Farm, right on the day Farmer John said it would. It doesn't always happen that way, sometimes they're early or late. But it's good news that the ewes are starting to lamb.
Now this lamb is part of the mob, not a pet. I'll have to bide my time to see if I will have any abandoned lambs to look after this season. The bag of powdered milk is sitting on the garage doorstep and the bottles are ready too, just in case. Things tend to move quickly when they happen. And of course you'll be the first to know.
