We had this pair yesterday, two of the tiniest lambs I have seen.
I'll be interested to see how they get on, I've heard that they can be born small but develop well despite this.
Nicky put them in the shed last night thinking they were too small to survive the night and tried to give them a supplementary feed too boost them. But they were having none of it and mum who is a first timer was getting a bit stressed so she left them too it.In the morning all three were in the middle of the field looking fine.
We are bracing ourselves for a rush of lambs this weekend and next week, typically with our busiest week of the month with the monthly Moseley Farmers Market on Saturday.

They do look tiny.
hi
That ewe seems to be quite timid and was probably pushed off the feed my more aggressive ewes. One of the problems of buying breeding animals in is that you don't know their characters, next year we will make sure she is fed with a smaller group.
