Baby Name

A baby sheep is called a lamb! Lambs are born in spring, which is why spring is sometimes called 'lambing season.'

🏡

Home

Sheep and lambs live on farms and graze on grassy hillsides and meadows. At night they shelter in a cozy pen called a fold or a sheep shed.

🥛

Food

Lambs drink their mama's rich, warm milk. As they grow, they begin nibbling on tender green grass, clover, and hay.

Mama Helps

A mama sheep, called a ewe, learns her lamb's unique bleat the moment it is born so she can always find it in a big flock.

🌱

Baby Learns

Lambs learn to run and leap within just a few hours of birth — you might spot them bouncing and jumping just for the sheer joy of it!

Wow Fact

Sheep have nearly 360-degree vision! That means a lamb can see almost all the way around itself without even turning its head, which helps it spot danger.
