Junior not helping

the first of the ewes due yesterday delivered a singleton in the early afternoon. The one expecting twins was in early labour in the afternoon

At 915 in the evening one lamb had appeared

And she expecting twins .

And 45 minutes later the 2nd one appeared

And the usual behaviour is that the mother will lick the newborn dry,whilst it attempts to stand  and then feed .

But for this one the first twin  go in the way trying to feed, as the ewe was sorting out the second one.


But all was well in the end, with 2 active , standing, feeding lambs

And we need names for this pair.

I thought of halibut and horseradish .
