What an anxious/impatient youngster would logically want to know in instances when his parent promises a certain action/food/relief/entertainment "in two shakes of a lamb's tail".
Cranky child: "Are we there yet?!"
Parent driving (cheerfully): "Oh, no worries --- we'll be there in two shakes of a lamb's tail!"
Cranky child: "But how often does the lamb shake its tail?! Oh, sure --- a NORMAL AND ALERT lamb probably "flutters its little stumpy thing" quite regularly, but if the lamb is asleep or not feeling chipper, its behind-flipper might not move much at all, and so it might take HOURS for it to jiggle even ONCE, let alone TWICE!"

Get the Lamb handsmug. A sheep less than one years old who has not given birth.
Often mis labeled as “baby lamb” by those who do not know what a sheep is, and assume it is a different animal from a lamb.

Person 1: Hey look! I got a baby lamb! Person 2: A lamb is a baby sheep, there’s no need to say “baby” in front of it. Did you drop out of grade school?

Get the Lambmug. He's overall pretty cool, but can be a dickhead at times. Definately a cool guy once you get to know him. Usually likes sports and acting gay when he's usually the straightest guy in the room.
