Dina and Deborah

This is what we like to see...newborn Deborah up and nursing from her mother, Dina. Dina's mother, Dolly, came from a petting zoo at Frog Pond Farm in Bainbridge. My student was working there and talked me into "saving" her. Dolly was the only sheep in the "zoo" and had not been shorn for several years. I was a bit concerned about taking her, but she's been a fantastic, sturdy sheep with a lovely, soft fleece. I think Dolly is Romney and Corriedale but I'm not sure. Dina seems to have her mother's strong maternal instinct.
