How young were they?
frustratedearthmother, wow, what an adventure! I suppose I had better keep a real sharp knife readily available just in case....
You're brave!!!I do keep one in the barn now...cuz you just never know...I've actually done "emergency C-sections" twice. Once from the choking and once from a doe that ruptured a uterus and had to be put down. Got the kid out alive that time!
200 lbs is a big sheep, sounds like you got a good deal for $60 if they grew that well. If they are nearly yearlings that are certainly ready to give you some lambs so I would keep watch. Are sheep seasonal breeders like my goats? I always see lambs in the spring but is that by breeders choice or that ewe's choice?
