The two white finn ewes were bred to a 75%Gotland/Finn ram and the lambs have brown coloured splashes of colour on various parts of their white bodies. We thought only one of these ewes carried a black gene but still, these splashes are brown. The lambs noses have a tiny little triangle shape of brown above their pink noses. The black 25% Gotland ewe had all black babies which we expected but these other babies are baffling. Just wondered if you had any thoughts you could share. There are pics on my blog www.gypsyspinner.blogspot.com Thanks...Jody van DooijewaardJodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665272462573135734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31827832.post-15053039154519841212011-03-18T09:01:18.344-07:002011-03-18T09:01:18.344-07:00My newest version uses maple syrup instead of suga...My newest version uses maple syrup instead of sugar and cinnamon for spice.
