All the pregnant sheep gathered today outside ALBERTA’s maternity pen today to meet EMMA the new baby lamb. Soon these ladies will be in maternity pens of their own at Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC.
Today farm visitors were allowed to sit and hold sweet three day old EMMA. Mama ALBERTA demanded a food treat in exchange. She particularly loves greens like kale and romaine and cabbage, apple slices, sliced carrots, and grapes. Food treats help her make milk to feed EMMA and keep her occupied while visitors snuggle her sweet baby lamb.
