[Jacob-list] lamb count

[Linda]

I had it happen for the first time this year.  I didn't dock tails last year and didn't plan on doing it this year - but Vachal decided to do it for me with her lamb.  She actually didn't take the end off, but managed to chew the bottom 2/3 of the tail into rather mangled mess.  She's a very attentive mother and was quite active in cleaning him - maybe a little too active.  I did band his tail!
