Couldn't blog yesterday as I felt ill. Probably all the excitement the day before and the fact that I got drenched. Mother has come to the rescue with several new coats so I have no excuse for getting drenched again!
Trouble's baby is doing well, plenty of dashing around and then collapses in a heap and can't stay awake any longer!
I am glad I didn't say she was definitely brown as she isn't - a dark fawn I think.
All other cria are doing well but the flies are really bad. I know last year we used a spray but I can't find it so I may have to get more but it was pretty expensive. The only cria I could find without flies covering him was Dib Dab. Not a very good photo as the sun glints of the suris.
A quick assessment of everyone yesterday makes us think we probably only have one more to give birth. Bea is still a bit of a possibility but fairly remote. So it is all down to Cassie now!
She is only a couple of days over the eleven months but we are having an early year and I am hoping to go to Glastonbury at the weekend for the wool festival.
