We are getting a couple of registered Cotswold ewe lambs for the kids to show. They will be shown in breeding class. The only problem is that the breeder that we are getting them from likes long tails, and docks very long. These lambs are 3 weeks old now and I got to thinking that the long tail probably will not show very well. (this is the first year they will show sheep, lots to learn) We are not picking them up until they are weaned in another month. I am wondering if there is anything that can be done about docking them shorter at this point? I docked a neighbors lambs tails at 3 weeks, but I do not know yet whether she will be interested in redocking or if we will have to wait until we get them.
Thanks
