Lamb #1 continues to get fatter and stronger; it no longer seems inconceivable that she will survive into the next day. She (yes, she) is also evidence of my failing grade in Beginning Lamb Observation, Establishing Sex. I took a cursory look at her nether regions the day she was born and convinced myself that I saw male parts. She provided evidence to the contrary this afternoon.
I picked her up to take a closer look and confirmed the revised conclusion.
