Re: Lamb pictures

Hooray! Box of nervous rocks, however, is more like it. I've never understood the attraction of the skitterish Suffolk breed--long legs, more bone than meat, etc--although they are better high desert grazers than most other breeds owing to those long bony legs.

We went out this morning to find a set of triplets, but this time all is
well. I did stay home from work just to make sure they all were nursing,

ewe has a bag as big as a cow's and the faucets are way lower than a lamb's
instinct tells them to look. After six hours I had to call my husband home
to help me hold the ewe so we could manually stick the babies onto her
udder. But it did work.
Still...if we humans get wiped out by bird flu or some such there will be no
feral Suffolks. Dumb as a box o' rocks.
Anyway here are some pix. Hope this URL isn't too long. I apologize again
for Yahoo, it absolutely will NOT allow me to put in a picture that I
rotated. It just does not take. Very annoying.
