Lamby.....

Lamby is still the fattest sheep on the farm stealing food where ever she can........
She came for a pat this morning.....
I looked at her up close and she is so so fat...... Her udder is looking full so I think there may be baby lamb/ies again soon........
Catch you later.......

Lamby......

OMG it's so exciting............At the Chookshed party back in 2016 my "lovely neighbours" delivered a new born lamb who had lost it's mother..........
They didn't want to bother with the whole feeding thing..............
Lamby has grown into a young ewe and features in my blog here and there............anyway she is now a Mumma herself.........
So that must make me a granny hey...........
We have raised heaps on bottles but they usually grow and and go and be big  sheep in the rest of the mob (and ignore you).............
But Lamby and Goatie live around the house.........
So I took her a treat this evening when I found she had lambed..........
A little boy.........well actually not little.......I think he is pretty big with LONG legs............Listen to him on on the video.....so cute.........
Catch you later.......

Double delight......

One of my chooks is regularly laying double yolkers............
I cracked two eggs for breaky the other morning and just as I cracked them both in I thought to take a photo.........so it's not the best photo but it looked pretty cool having them in the pan..........
Lamby is the fatest most cheeky sheep on the farm...............she has a new party trick as of the last few weeks...........she squeezes out between the double gates out the front.............jumps over the ramp...........hangs out in the outer front yard for a little bit then wanders into the garden.......once shes had a nibble she comes bleating around the doors to let us know she is in the garden and wants to be let out the Chookshed gate to go straight to the silo for some oats.........
a naughty little lamb.........she actually looks a little skinny in the photo above but I wished all our sheep looked like this..........
she's just nibbling on a few of the plants I wished she would leave alone.........

Black Betty....

Starting to feel like a regular homeless motherless shelter here....... 
Introducing Black Betty..... Well that's what I am calling her......
she is tiny........
so cute..........
She jumps up on the seats no worries..........
Lamby at the bottom of the pic........she has grown lots..........the neighbours pet we are baby sitting.........and Black Betty............
 Here they all are slobbering on me.........
Add Boris and Lamby the inn does need to find more space as 2 more calves are arriving tonight....... 
More on them when I get a chance............ 
&&&
It's been a busy week............
I had a quick catch up sleep over with Jenny@ Bird on the Border and Fiona @ Bubz Rugz, then with Fiona and  Kris @ Tag A Long Teddies we had lunch and a bit of a stitch........
then an extra surprise treat the next day I got to have lunch with Fiona and Michelle @ Rag Tag Stitchin........
And I was having such a great time chatting with the girls I forgot to take any pics...........but it was so nice to catch up.............
&&&&&
today we did some cattle  work which I would have put off til tomorrow but more rain is forecast next week.........and we are behind as it is............
it's the kind of day you wear a long sleeve spencer and a skivvy and a jumper and a coat and a scarf and a beanie........AND you don't get hot enough working to take any layers off.........bbbrrrr......
Thank goodness I wasn't on the bike...........
Did I say how much I love my wood fire.........
gotta go the babies are just about here so I have to go feed them..........
Catch you later......
