    You must have had some few fulfilling days since the lambing, Zara! The little ones are just so adorable 🙂 How come they’re mostly black, is it the ram? I wear black all the time, so I’m loving those lambs, haha!

      Our ram (Teddy) is mostly white, but the ewes are 50% Gotland, and Gotland are born black and turn grey. So these black lambs will probably turn grey before the end of the summer. However, the white markings on their heads are probably a trait inherited from the ram. I was surprized that Brittis (the white sheep) also had a black lamb, as she had white lambs last year. Perhaps black is in fashion this year? 😉
