Emmerdale: Minty the Lamb is a wonderful addition to the soap, fans swoon

Fans can't get enough of Minty

Yesterday’s episode of Emmerdale (Thursday, May 2) saw Isaac wrap Cain around his little finger and bag himself a new pet.

Bringing an abandoned lamb back home with him, Isaac soon named the little lamb Minty.

Emmerdale fans are now super in love with Minty the Lamb and have declared him their ‘new favourite’ character.

Emmerdale: Isaac adopted Minty the Lamb

This week in the Dales, Isaac took an interest in the farm but soon became concerned when he spotted an abandoned lamb.

Moira explained that the lamb might not survive if it doesn’t take to being hand reared. In a few months, the lamb would then be sold for meat.

Isaac was horrified last night, worrying about the lamb. Cain then took Isaac out of school behind Moira’s back and went on a mission to adopt the lamb.

Moira wasn’t best pleased but allowed for Isaac to keep the lamb, seeing him try to feed it. Isaac was focused on keeping the lamb alive, naming it Minty.
