Purebred Rambouillet ewe with five–count ’em five!–lambs
We have an amazing birth announcement. The Finn folk may brag about their multiple births, but, for the first time ever (for us, at least), we have a Rambouillet ewe with quints. They are doing well (with some supplemental milk) AND she gave us a 64’s spinning count fleece!
This Hampshire ewe doesn’t want to be outdone, but I suspect only two–maybe three–of those lambs are hers.
