Silvie is an older BP ewe who looks like she is carrying quads. We have been pumping her full of extra feed, but you can see from the photo that she is dropping weight. If she doesn't have these babies soon, I think that she might explode!
We had guinea pigs when the kids were little. Momma guinea pigs would look like they had swallowed a dinner plate just before they gave birth. Silvie reminds me of them every time I look at her!
Quads finally arrived on April 15th. 2 ewes and 2 ram lambs sired by Autumn Hills Finnegan. Lambs weighed in at 12, 12, 8.5 and 8 lbs respectively. No wonder she looked like she swallowed a table before lambing!
