Daisy, our 1/2 Cormo and 1/2 Shetland ewe, had her lamb this morning. She is a sweet black ewe lamb with some splashes of white on her head.
She is 25% Cormo and 75% Shetland and she should have a fabulous fleece if her parents are any indication! I was thinking she might end up white, but a black lamb helps figure out her mothers genetics and you can't have too much black wool.

There are some nearly black iris, and there's Black-Eyed Susan, of course!
