Okay, we are SOOOO going to do this at my house. I need some help with LEDs (I figure Shadowrat is the master but others might know too?) and suggestions on what we should have the sheep do...

Perfect timing. This guy just showed up:

Judging by the 4 new ones we got today, we should have a flock of 14 this season. Not quite enough for pong maybe but I'm sure we could get *something* going on the hillside.

Very cool, Alex wants to see pictures of the other lambs if you get a chance.

I shall upload some immediately! :) Sharon has come up with names for the first two lambs (a male and female).

Buttercup and Westley. =D

Given that we intend to eat the males, I forsee myself saying something like "Good night Westley, I'll most likely kill you in the morning." for the next year or so. =P

We still expect four more but I think we have a week or so before they show up. :)

I don't have a prob with someone raising animals for food, but how do you kill them after naming them?

With difficulty. :p The two kid goats in the freezer were named Morsel and Simmers with Garlic which somewhat helped. And I was wrong about a week or two before the next ones...another popped out an hour ago.

The wife put up some extremely cute pictures and introductory blurbs for each of the newborns here (http://sunrisehavenfarm.com/). I got to say, they look adorable.
