Yes it's that time of year. Over the weekend I had a saddleback sow who produced 13 live piglets (plus 2 still born) and a third lamb of the season. Two more ewes to go.
Yup, 2 out of 3 of ours are very bagged up, the third coming along too. First season for two of them, and the first year with a little brown ram, cute and friendly as can be, so interested to see what arrives.
yay for lambs! my daughter and her boyfriend are talking about getting a farm. i could just lay down and die right now. though i need to live to go to that farm every day!
Know completely how you feel, we had grand sons for weekend, going back to work for a rest.

ReplyDeleteNice looking sheep. Which breed are they, and what is their wool like? Michelle in Wellington, NZ - a keen knitter!
ReplyDeleteNice :) Good luck with your lambing season! That is a lot of sheep. :)
