Jimmy’s very loud and is the funniest, most demanding little dude ever. Everything he does is so cute. He’s extremely confident and was so even when he was only two kilos amongst eight kilo lambs. Jimmy was premature with health issues. His growth plates haven’t closed, probably because he was premature, causing contracted tendons. So, he has bowlegs and his knees point outwards. To manage this his legs are in a splint intermittently during the day to give him strength to build them up. As he’s a dorper he’ll be short and stumpy so it’s important to get his legs in the best position possible.
Tate is the sweetest and most divine lamb in the world! However, he’s very timid and needs a lot of reassurance and touching. That said, he doesn’t mind having a chat, even to himself when nobody’s around! Tate sleeps with his bum up on his teddy bear and his head down. He also tends to get under chairs and gets stuck! He likes to rest a lot and isn’t very active. Tate is black and soft like velvet.
