Lambing Around...

Our new arrivals are starting to settle into their new home.  

During the first couple of days they've been very skittish, running away whenever they see me, I don't think they trust me after being manhandled onto the trailer and the stresses of being relocated.

The Ram (The Daddy to the Lambs) he is the sheep with the entire black face, and he just continually stares at me, whenever he see's me. I have a feeling there is some trust issues that we need to work on going forward.

But if the lambs are anything to go by... life is good in the eyes of our new Arapawa baby lambs...

Is That A Flock?

Today our flock of 3 Arapawa Sheep has grown to 15 sheep. We've purchased another 6 adults sheep, along with their 6 baby lambs. Was a fantastic day for life down Wattle Lane.

We missed out on some great photo opportunities while collecting the sheep, we had the adults on the trailer and the babies in the back of the car. Very cute and adorable... but we will try to add some better photos soon.
