It's been really chaotic around here lately, I even missed photographing Dolly and Molly lambing although they both lambed at the same time of the morning as the two Polly's. Molly lambed first, another boy with the tiniest cream patch near his eye, so we have called him Pirate, and ...
I'm starting to think that Piglett might have been born a bit early and Koala is only 3 days old but so much more advanced from day 1 than Piglett was (its been so many years since we last had lambs its hard to remember what is and isn't normal. ...
