Officially on lamb watch now!
I figured I'd make a big thread to cover the whole thing instead of spamming everyone with smaller threads ;)

BUT YES
Wendy is really restless today. She'll eat a little bit, then go off by herself for a little... and eventually go back to the hay feeder.
So she's acting a bit different. Also, she's been pawing at the ground the past few days, which is new for her.
She also had a tough time squatting to pee, like she tried, and then went to a different spot, and tried again, then came over to me and peed in front of me...

There will be photos of udders and sheep lady parts, so beware ;)
AND lambs, when the time comes, of course.
Wendy's daughter, MaryEllen is also supposed to be lambing here in February, so I'll post her lambs on here too, if she has any.

Wendy's udder was radiating heat this morning XD
Plus our wether lamb kept trying to nurse off of her... Jimmy is such a big baby lol

I have three ewes that are really into tail wagging right now, and those three are ones that I'm sure are bred, or are still waiting to find out.

Not yet!
I just went down to check and feed them.

Looks like it's going to be a barn day for everyone though :/
Half the pasture is in water. It's been raining non-stop for the past two days. lol
