milk thief

Sorry the photo is blurry, I grabbed my camera in a hurry to get a shot of this jacob lamb stealing milk from the Teeswater twins.  This is sort of sad, because this ewe only has one good teat, and her twin rams really need as much milk as they can.  Maybe when this ewe is sheared, she'll be able to monitor what's going on back there, and head butt any thieves out of the way.

We postponed shearing, as the trip to Lucasville trade days took up all of Sat. and working on patching fences seemed more important...

Also STILL no piglets.
