One baby is just born when video begins. The third lamb has some meconium (feces) in the amniotic sac indicating stress, not surprising in the third lamb to be born, but she has done well hence and all three lambs are thriving. The breed is St. Croix, a hair sheep (no wool) known for their incredible resistance to parasites and extraordinary mothering abilities. Saxapahaw Village Farm, Saxapahaw, NC

I think it was better than the mother gave birth to lambs in a protected cold air. But the sheep are precious! Greetings from Mexico!
