Well here is the surprise of the year. Popeye came in and told me that Cleopatra had given birth to a male cria. Here is a picture of him, maybe 2 days old (?) I had given up with Cleopatra and let her out to run with the sheep. They came to the top for a drink and thats when he saw it, came in to get the camera and took pictures (nice photos Popeye)
Hopefully to improve the shell colour and size of the eggs.

Wow, what a suprise. How about Julius :))
OK F/G, Julius it is. (maybe would have called it Julie if it was a girl:-) LOL)
Aaaahhh....cute! Are they going to continue roaming or will they stay a bit closer now? :)
Hi V/G. I think they will be with the sheep from now on because since we have had a mild flush of green grass, the sheep will be lambing soon. Its only a short gestation period for sheep, dont want to lose any lambs to Mr. Fox !
Oh he is soooo cute! Jonah would have been nice too. Can we get pics of the lambs when they arrive too?
xoxoxox
Yes, sheep pics on blog when they arrive. Our Wiltipoll sheep are ready to mate after the first green feed for the season. (strange ?) I think they have a 5 month gestation, I could be wrong, but it may be a couple of months yet'
Julius is a great looking lad.
Incidentally did you know that Julius was the real first name of Groucho Marx?
Zebbycat would offer congratulations only he is far to busy ... snoring.
care and huggles from a definate Autumn, Mickle xxx
No Michelle, I did not know that.
Groucho eh? What a pity we have passed G. for a name, maybe next time around the alphabet !!
Thanks to you....and Zebby
