Until today. I just did a "pregnant lady" check and collected eggs on the way back to the house, and was delighted to find a clean green egg in a nest box. (The others were in the nest boxes, too; everyone has muddy feet.)It has been a very rainy, windy day - just the sort of weather to induce lambing, or so I hoped. The window for Barish-sired lambs is inching away, but neither Annabelle nor Bronwen look any closer to lambing than they have for a week. Annabelle's belly looks like it could be holding twins; please, oh please let it be twin katmoget ewe lambs. Barrister has only served to whet my appetite for more cunning kats - and the little jumping bean needs some playmates!
Not giving up hope yet at . . .

May your lambs be as you hope for! The green egg is lovely, but the others, oh my. A definite downside of mud.
When I was young and lived at home I was in charge of gathering eggs, cleaning the chicken house out and taking care of feeding those lovely chickens > I loved them so ~ But I loved the green eggs.. I thought they were the best. I read somewhere that you don't wash eggs until ready to use.. Boy those are really muddy eggs.. Have a great and tiggeriffic day from Iowa:)
I don't know how those girls can get those eggs SOOOOO dirty! But you're getting some beauties - Congrats on the new lamb - he's a cutie! T.
Oh here's hoping you get your lamb wish! So, did you have green eggs and ham? ;)
Such a pretty green egg. I hope you'll post more egg pictures sometime. Something so mesmerizing about eggs!
I've got my fingers crossed for a double order of katmogets. :-)
@Theresa - HILARIOUS.
