this is carole holding arabella
cute huh?
she's about a week old here
a better picture?
there's bonnie being a good momma in the lower right corner
and
HERE'S BONNIE...............
a quick color/fleece note on tunis............
they are born red, and their legs and heads stay red..
they are allowed from a deep mahogany red to a lighter cinnamon red or tan
and their fleece after their lambs wool........turns various shades of cream
I would LIKE to breed for darker and redder faces and a pale cinnanom cream fleece
but we'll see what happens..........
vi
but arabella's lamb fleece is red........ and will be red if I can get her shorn in august
( carole said unless her daughter can shear, as the professional shearer won't come out for only one)
Aww, look at that face! She's gotten so big! Will she stay that color, or will her fleece turn a different color when she gets older?
ReplyDeleteBoth mother and daughter are adorable! I'm jealous you get to spend time with such wonderful creatures.
ReplyDeleteYou know, your Bonnie has a face that's quite similar to Dolly's!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear you lost the ram lamb, Vi. But your Arabella looks like she's doing quite well!
I'm still waiting on Taffy...the wait is agonizing!
BTW...I've got TWO ponies now, and they're both ours...not someone else's... :D
