The common term for a baby sheep is lamb. Lambs are known for their soft wool and playful nature, often seen frolicking in pastures. Typically born in the spring, lambs are a vital part of sheep farming, valued for their meat and wool. The term "lamb" generally refers to sheep that are less than one year old, and lamb meat is considered a delicacy in many cultures. The nurturing relationship between ewes and their lambs is notable, as lambs depend on their mothers for milk and protection.
