Baby Lambs

It's the cutest!

It's the cutest!

We have lambs, usually twins, all throughout the year.  Our busiest lambing time is in December.  Christmas time with baby lambs playing everywhere is certainly a sight of God’s Glory.

Lambs make wonderful pets for children.  Our children have one for a pet and one to show in 4-H this year!
