2019, Waiting on lambs!

[secuono]

74- 10 5 days
75- 8.8 5 days
72- 11.7 7 days
73- 11.4 7 days
76- 12.5 4 days

No lambs, they're driving me batty! Why bother with a crayon if they still take so long? =/

 

[secuono]

She's laughing at me. "No lambs for you!"

I guess it’s not just goats who believe in “doe code”

Golly, help me! Another messy year!!

I believe that I sorted the lambs to the proper mom, but I will look into and have paternity tests done!

Why?

THREE ewes lambed at the SAME TIME!

Another problem?

TONS of RAMS!


Giant Guinevere had two. Rams, white, touch of head and tail spots & grey patching???

Surry had two. Rams, one black w/faint head spot, one white.

Chocolate had one. Ewe, black, w/faint head spot.


Knowing their history, Choc & Surry, I'm fairly certain that I paired them back up correctly. Two were being cared for their own moms, 3 were all over. Guin's have the same wool type and coloring, other white is very different.


Did I mention that there are a whopping 7 rams and just 3 ewes?!?

Addie & her boys went out today. I forgot to tag and dock Patchie's lamb, so they will go out tomorrow. Sugar's lambs are still being medicated.

Had one on the Wait List canceled, another one has been just radio silence, unfortunately.

Updating, radio silence person has quit sheep.
