For those of you looking for signs of the apocacopalypse - 60 black lambs from one white ram and 3

White ram and 37 White ewes produce 60 black lambs

A bit of fun really but I am sure there will be those of you who interpret such signs in nature as portents of doom will be interested.

A farmer was left stunned when her flock of 37 white sheep gave birth to 60 lambs - that are all BLACK. Sally Du Toit, 39, and husband Jacob, 29, helped deliver the first black lamb on April 2 this year at their smallholding near Royston, Herts. Since then their flock of 37 white ewes has given birth to a total of 60 black lambs, all sired by a one-year-old ram called Rowley. Read more: www.dailymail.co.uk...

The story and owners of the sheep think it is due to a genetic throwback.

But I am sure some doomsayer out there could find a Nostradamus stanza that reveals the day the 60 black lambs walk the earth is the day the infidels rise and Lucifer walks the planet

It must be a conspiracy!

Sounds to me like you're fishing for something. You post it as a sign of the apocalypse, yet don't believe it yourself? I'm afraid with the geneology of the ram, this information is a bit moot.

maybe the family black sheep (ram) came home one night...

Thinks of old nursery rhyme --Mary had a Little Lamb-- Get it Mary the Lamb Interesting post but the gene could of just been dormant in the ram.

pretty interesting!

However I would change up your title if i were you, it makes you seem like you wrote it intoxicated........too many letters in the last word!

HA! There are so many jokes there, but I'm afraid the sensitivity level might be breached.

Honestly, I don't know how this is possible. Even a latent genetic marker would not result in almost 100% black sheep? This has to be diet or hormones or contamination or something?

Well it's quite obvious that this is the result of planet x, nibiru, and elenin having sex with HAARP while chemtrails rain down on Obama's birth certificate.

In line with the tongue in cheek theme, I misspelt it in line with a vaguely remembered movie quote, Life of Brian possibly I can't be sure but there was definitely mention of an apocacopalypse somewhere!

How did that one nursery rhyme go?

bah bah black sheep
have you any wool?
yes sir yes sir...
3 bags full...
The end of the world
is coming at Yule!


hahaha

The ram in question simply carries a melanistic gene, simply a mutational trait .
