My first year with sheep...and she lambed three weeks ago. Two happy lambs, male and female. My goats are due in mid-April...I think maybe I'll aim my ewe for that next year! Lots warmer then! Didn't get the choice this year.Shahbazin said:My lambing usually starts the first week of March. So about 3 more weeks to go....![]()
I got the ewes form an old man that could not take care of them anymore, there was not a ram there. So I know they were not breed already. The Ram is a Feb. ''03'' lamb maybe he is too young?Ross said:You know different breeds will breed more or less reliably year round. December is a perfectly good month(if getting a tad late for some) to breed sheep. I'm wondering why a ram would only breed one out of four. I suppose they might not be coming in heat, the ram might have had a problem, or they were already bred. Any signs you might be getting lambs earlier than expected?
