I am four hours old. I can see and hear, but my legs are very weak. They wobble and shake.

I am hungry. I drink my mother’s milk. My sister wants to feed too.

Now I am tired. My woolly coat will keep me warm while I sleep.

r e i n t g t g n e s t o r G I am one day old. My legs are getting stronger. I keep very close to my mother and bleat loudly when she goes away.

I can only stand for a short time before I fall down.

But soon I get up again.

Exploring I am one week old. My sister and I are growing up fast.

I am interested in everything I see and hear. There’s a new bale of straw. I wonder what it’s like.

Mmm, the straw smells nice, but it tickles my nose!

My sister and I often graze together. We rarely feed from our mother.

Grass is very tough to chew. I chew it over and over again until it is soft.

p u Almost grown I am twelve weeks old. My sister and I spend most of the day grazing with the older sheep.

Our wool is growing longer. We are almost as big as our mother. Soon we will be fully grown.
