A new lamb joined us tonight! She has been named "Sage" after the wild and prosperous Sagebrush found throughout Wyoming. When we got to the sheep it was extremely windy; sustained winds of 28 miles per hour. It was time to come up with a new plan and only two hours of daylight left. We ran home, fed the kids, grabbed another lambing jug, and plywood to cover the sides so the girls would be protected from the wind.
Here we are in the process of adapting our lambing jugs to have solid sides; of course the three boys are in tow and helping! They are learning construction skills at an early age.
Here is Sunshine with Petal, who is doing very well today! They also got additions to their pen in order to make sure they were warm tonight and out of the wind.
