Finally. FINALLY. We had a good photo day - dry, warm, good light, and me at home - when I could go sit with the sheep and take some photos. These lambs are between 7 weeks (Ashley and Lenny) and 3 weeks old (George).

Nice to finally see your lambs from Barish! I like the one I got, too; he's a solid boy with consistent fleece that feels soft so far.
I like Barish's lambs, too. Was hoping for more patterns, but the fleeces are really consistent. I'll try to get better photos later. :-)
Wow, Franna! Your ewes look like such nice genuine Shetland sheep! Nice to see real fleeces on them. They are beautiful!

Thanks, Amy! They're overdue for shearing - right at 12 months growth. I like long, crimpy, mid-20's micron Shetland fleeces :-)
