This is a rather boring, peaceful little clip. But I love these vignettes of life here on the farm. Moments like these make doing chores in a snowstorm well worth the bundling up and the freezer burn on the nose.
This tiny ram, Hero, is the lone lamb on the farm right now. His mama, Mille, got pregnant somehow before we put the ram in with the ewes. (We know how she got pregnant, of course, it just wasn’t part of our plan. The wacky weather last summer caused some of the baby ewes to cycle early, and she ended up being bred by one of the baby rams before we separated them out. Ah, the joys of animal husbandry!) He’ll have company soon enough, though, since the rest of the lambs are due to arrive in mid-March. March madness indeed…
