Alicia - our newest Shetland Lamb

Meet Alicia. She's our third and final lamb for the season. She is a VERY TINY Shetland lamb. Her mother is a first year ewe and we were initially concerned that she wasn't going to allow Alicia to nurse . . . thankfully this proved not to be an issue and Alicia seems to be doing well. It's hard to see how small she is here - literally I doubt she's much over 2 pounds and stands less than 8" tall. My wife thinks she's more like a pound than two - and that my 8 inch height estimation is too tall. Needless to say, Alicia is the smallest lamb of the season and a joy to watch frolic.
