This morning Farmer Mary went outside to feed and water the animals and she glanced over and there was JULIET LOUISE the sheep with a brand new baby boy! She moved them to the front yard, tended to the baby (out iodine on the belly button, put a little coat on for warmth) and got ready to greet a Birthday girl who was celebrating turning 4 today.
“Friend of the Farm”, David, was here helping repair a pen that had imploded due to the weight of the recent snow, so the new baby boy will be DAVID. Here are the two Davids.
The Birthday girl arrived and enjoyed holding FOUR baby bunnies at one time!
She was the first child to hold baby DAVID!
When the time came for a pasture walk, as the family and Farmer Mary and CHARLIE, the farm dog, entered the pasture a little cry was heard. A TWIN!! The other lamb, also a boy, was brought up to his mom and brother by the Birthday girl.
The two boys are settling in..come snuggle them soon!
Celebrating your Birthday at Winterpast Farm can be amazing!!!
Here is a photo showing the Dad, JACK, as a young lamb, then as a mature Ram. He is the head of a big flock of sheep at one of Farmer Mary’s friends farms.
