“Mamaja” gives birth to five lambs: Luck or bad omen?
It hasn’t happened in years
MATI - Usually, because of a very special characteristic, if we were talking about the birth of two or three lambs, the news would perhaps not be all that surprising. But the case of the farmer from the Baz area, who last night became the owner not of two, but of five lambs born to his sheep, is truly a case that does not happen often.
Being small and not quite normal, the lambs died a few moments after birth. Meanwhile the sheep “Mamaja” is in perfect health. According to veterinarians in the area, such a case is extremely rare.
