This morning when I arrived at the goat pen, I was surprised to see
two young lambs come out from behind the chicken run!

The mama goats are not too sure they want these new creatures around!

But the kids appear to be warming up to them.

They seem content to spend most of the time off by themselves.

They are eight weeks old. And are being raised for meat.

So... Where did they come from? Lol. I wish a pen and some sheep would just show up at my place, lol. Oh, and some feed... That'd be nice too.

Over the weekend, the owner of the goats and one of the other "milk maids" each bought a lamb! Fun and Fun!

I like that there's a black one and a white one. Makes it more interesting, lol. I so wish I could have goats and sheep, but I'm limited to poultry.

They are cute!

I just got my hair sheep home. I will have babies to raise for meat next year though!
