That’s a big one! What a cutie. I’m glad he’s named after Mr. Knightly. I wonder how he compares in size to Tiny.
Wow, he’s a biggun! And just as cute as he is big!
Now will you REALY need a ribbon on this BIG boy?? Welcome, Mr. Knightly.
Susie tried to get a picture of the two of them together but Catalina was about to go crazy with Rushworth out of her sight! And Miss Liberty was wondering if he was her baby…lots of confusion.
OMG!! He’s adorable. How many more to go?
He’s beautiful. This is a little like opening birthday or Christmas presents, except much better..You never know what’s in the next package, but each is a treasure. Thank you so much for sharing!
Wow! He is 16 pounds and Tiny was…three? Tiny has a lot of growing to do!
He looks so laid back and calm. So glad to hear that your shearing day event was a hit! Can’t wait for the photos and stories… How is Mr. Tiny doing?
What a handsome lamb! Keep ‘em coming . . .
There are no “dumb” questions….right? Why are the newborns orange?…Is it from mom or medicine used for delivery???
Aww… he was born when I was hanging out waiting for a driver change in DC! So sweet!
What does a lamby-lamb normally weigh – asks a city girl who’s never been around a lamb, but imagines they smell like sweetness and light and feel like all kinds of softy cotton balls.
Jan and Beth: We couldn’t find any good info on cormo lamb birth weights (Maggie is waiting on an email from someone…) but Susie says like 8ish pounds is a good sized lamb. And the yellow coating is kinda like the vernix on human babies. I’ve mostly heard them called yolky when they come out that way…they all seem to be yolky!
Handsome dude! I think he should be assigned to Mr. Tiny in the farm buddy system. The pictures of the other newborn lambs often look like they need to “grow into” their fleece skin, but Knightly looks like he’s a perfect fit. Can’t wait to meet them all at the photography workshop in 3 wks!
congratulations Ms Liberty! to Thee i sing! WOW 16 pounds
I bet SHE’S more comfortable now!
welcome to the world Knightley!
Holy lamb! She had twins, just all wrapped up in one bundle!
And we thuoght she might be carrying triplets . . . no wonder she looked so big, poor thing. Soooo cute!!! xoxo
