LLeyn Lambs

Two Lleyn ewe lambs doing what cade lambs do best - downing a bottle of nice warm milk! Lleyn are a Welsh breed, renouned for their easy lambing and great mothering abilities. Like most bottle reared lambs, these two were both one of a set of triplets. As sheep only have two teats triplets do better if one is taken away and fostered, either by another ewe with milk to spare, or humans (who can quickly become their slaves!)

I actually bought three Lleyn lambs, the third has been fostered by one of my Wensleydale ewes who sadly lost her own lamb.
