This is Princess and her baby, Nova.
Tiny, deer-like sheep.
"I've got an itch I just almost can't reach!"
"Here, baby, I'll get if for you."
Princess was a bottle lamb. A very spoiled bottle lamb ;-). This is her first baby. In case you were wondering if a bottle lamb could turn around and be a good mother herself.
Using the ole Cheerios method ;-).
"Cheerios?"
The ram. From the other side of fence ;-).
For more fun stories and pictures of Nova and Neo (the newest baby)...

Cute! I was not familiar with them - they are tiny, aren't they?
Nova has a pretty little face and that ram is something else. Very nice.
Oh my gosh, they are so adorable:-))!
ooooo you should get a few! :-)
I might be in love. They are gorgeous! They really do have very undomesticated faces.
Oh yes you need one in your herd!
Very cool ~ I need to read up more on them !
So when are you getting a couple?
I have a friend that used to have a flock of Soays. Like many primitive breeds, they were almost wild animals. She brought a few to fair one year; showing them was quite the adventure. I helped roo one of the yearling ewes. Even that was almost more than the poor little thing could stand. And they are tiny!
Very cute, where are they from originally?
I love their smiley faces and big eyes!
such a cute baby!
Cheerio method I love it:) Oh they are the cutest little sheep I would love to have some of them tramping around here. Hug B
Yea, St Kilda's best live!!! That is such a history...
Yay! I love the shot of Nova watching her mama eat cereal. She's not brave enough to challenge Princess yet, but she steals her Aunties' crunchies every night. :-)
They are really cute sheeps...so dainty:)
