First time mom, Butterfly, gave birth to twins Erie and Fox. Much to my dismay, Fox has become a bottle baby. Though he was sturdy and strong, she wanted nothing to do with him.

Born 4.2.2010 Bella's Seminole and Sugaree
I was so worried first time mom, Bella, would give me problems, but no, it was her sister Butterfly instead. Bella gave birth to ram lamb,Seminole (L) and ewe, Sugaree (center). They are doing great. She keeps them as far from me as she can.
Pima and Fox, Precious Bottle Babies
Fox (L) isButterfly's twin and Pima (R) is Leah's triplet. It's maddening when ewes reject a lamb. These babies have been a delight and good company to each other. My sister-in-law, Jane, provides their mid-day feedings while I'm at work.
Born 4.1.2010 Leah's Pequot and Paiute
Triplets Paiute (L) and Pequot (R). Brother Pima is my bottle baby. Smaller and weaker at birth, he didn't stand a chance with his stronger brothers. Leah and Cassie were delivering their triplets simutaneously.
Born 4.1.2010 Cassie's Comanche, Catawba and Cree
Three sets of triplets on April Fool's Day. Outstanding!
Cassie and Blue made a beautiful set of babies.
Born 4.1.2010 Lyra's Kiowa, Klickitat and Kickapoo
Lyra started the day early with the birth of her first set of triplets. She's twinned before. Ram (R), Kickapoo, is a badgerface.
