Four lambs in the picture.
These four are not THE four. They are two sets of twins. Among their small flock two sets of quadruplets were born. The first set were staying in the shed near the heat lamp the day I visited. The second set were not born yet at the time. (One did not make it.)I tried to find out the likelihood of quadruplet lambs, but apparently it depends on the breed. Most usually have single births or twins, so two sets of quads in one small flock seems to be unusual.

They must be close to you to keep such track of them. I like sheep from a distance.
It does seem unusual.
I think I can never eat lamb chops again when I see them !
Such sweet little lambs.

Oh they are adorable!
Aaaw, they are so precious and fluffy ~ I can almost hear them bleating!
I love lambs! I collect them but not the living kind like these! LOL
Lovely lambs! Our goats produced triplets one year - difficult, as they have just two teats!
How are lambs so pretty and sheep so ... plain?!
