Today is a happy day for my people!
The Jacob's Sheep that we picked up a while ago had another baby today. To be able to purchase such sheep for $100 each is pretty good anyway, but when some of them are pregnant, it is all the better. Here is the video that Pinkie-Pepper and I shot this morning when we saw that we had a new one!
VIDEO: WE JUST FOUND OUR NEW LAMB!
THOSE CUTE BABY PHOTOS FROM THE FIRST DAY
Here are a few photos that I took when we first found the new lamb. At the moment, I haven't even sexed it to see if it a male or female. Monster Truck and Sweet-Pepper say that they think it is a female, but we will see. So far, we are just happy that it is alive and well, and that its mama is taking good care of it.
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

WoW.... that really is a cute baby lamb.
Also, Good job with the photographs, but You always tend to take very good photographs.
Quick Question... when a lamb has black markings around the eye... why is that preferred ?
Congrats to You and hope all the other Peppers are doing well.
Cheers !!

The markings around the eyes are preferred because there is a breed standard. The sire of this heard doesn't have the black markings around the eyes or the muzzle, and he also has the white colored horn's, which is throwing off the genetics of this flock. I'm going to swap him out this year and allow a true sire to breed the flock this fall so next spring the kids should be more in line with what the Jacobs sheep breed is supposed to look like.
Not all the words are accurate and that part above, but it was the talk to text.

We have looked at this sheep. How do you think they compare to boer and kiko breed goats? Are they good with the high heats? Have you had any of them need their horns cut so they don't curl back down into their face? Thanks for the video.

These are good, and might be neck and neck with Kikos. If the genetics are good, the horns should grow in better directions. The plus to these would be they won't jump as high as a goat, but the plus to Boers or Kikos is no shearing in the spring.

Yes shearing is not something I have wanted to deal with yet. I have looked at sheep that shed since I am in a hot area. Thanks for the response and for the article information.

Always nice to see your farm with new life and birth of an animals which you depend so much on them for many reasons.
I remember of our dairy and beef farm I would see a calf being born and surviving, it was exciting moment because our farm gained another generation of live stock to support us in milk or beef.
Good to see your prosperity of livestocks.

Your posts are trending too cute. Bunnies and now a lamb. I remember the Bible story of how Jacob came out well with spotted sheep from Laban his father-in-law. I didn't know that they continue to name a breed of sheep after that event.

They did. although some dispute whether these are really decedents of those. All I know it that's what they call them, and they are spotted.

Awwwwww....its such a pleasant moment and joyful time to see new babies.
A new lamb is born, happy for you.
The amazing thing i usually observe is that the mother gets busy leaking the amniotic fluid of the new lamb. Nature is just too wonderful.
Congratulations @papa-pepper, you deserve more better things to come because your passion and dedication to homesteading is really fascinating and motivational.
The sky is just your stepping stone.
Congratulations once more.
A new baby is added to your flock, more money more responsibility, but i am very sure you are equal to the task including my dear little peppers.

Mother nature is a marvellous person, left alone and see what she can produce. It is great there were no side issues, which can destroy sleep.
You will soon have a cleared woodland with all the mobile lawn mowers going.
