I'm almost done lambing.....27 lambs to date, Purebred Shetland count is: 9 ewes and 13 rams. Crossbred lamb count is: 2 ewes and 3 rams.
I purchased Bee Sting late in the fall and while at Lil Country Acres, Juliann exposed Bee to Bug, she leased him for a month after I pulled my rams from their breeding groups. This puts little Bee about one month later than the rest. She's round and has an udder, so I'm thinking she won't be too much longer now.

Oooh, look at that Shania - and she's AVAILABLE! Somebody tie my hands....
ReplyDeleteHope you get a whole SWARM out of Bee and Bug - hee!
Thanks Michelle...I really am impressed with Shania, she has "IT".
DeleteBee x Bug babies should get special names, shouldn't they? Your mission: (cue dramatic music) find a singer's name that ties into the bug/bee theme. Should you decide to accept this mission......I will dig up something yummy in my stash to send your direction!!! The gauntlet has been thrown down.
You shouldn't have gotten me started; I have a thing about names!!!
DeleteMary Chapin Carpenter has a song called "The Bug" on her Come On, Come On album, and both Pearl Jam (could be a cool boy OR girl name!) and Bobbie Gentry recorded songs called "Bugs."
P.S. I got the mini-sweaters out of Bug's yarn done and will get them in the mail today.
Bee Sting had a ram lamb on Sunday and is being named Pearl Jam!!! I am waiting on some very special stuff back from processing, and you will get a surprise in your mailbox when I receive it. Thank you.
DeleteWell shucks, we had good names for more than ONE. Hope he's a stunner, though. And thanks so much; I love surprises! Which reminds me; I need to put all the names in a hat to draw a winner for my May Day prize. :-)
DeleteWell, I don't want to wish more rammies on you, but Bob Merrill and Jimmie Rodgers (plus several others, like Marty Robbins) recorded the song "Honeycomb" (an oldie favorite of mine). Lee Ann Womack recorded a song called "The Bees," so there's a girl's name!
ReplyDeleteI feel like you need to do some play on the phrase "bee in my bonnet" since bees are bugs!
ReplyDeleteAlso if Shania is for sale let me know!!!
Love that Bing Crosby! Besides him all of them are great!
ReplyDeleteHaha. I guess Joel was logged into his email when I posted that comment. Whoops.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous lambs, Kelly!
