Since so many decided to lamb close together, I had to rush to move the first 3 sets to communal living. They'll come out in a few more days.
Need to make several lambing jug panels! Totally ran out last night.

So far, 5 sets of twins & 1 single.

Shelly had twin rams!
Shelly × Oreo, codon QR, BSSBA & OEBSR. Both have head marks.
Waiting for them to dry to see if they have more white elsewhere. Dam is a spot carrier, sire is spotted.
Mom's milk seems to be a bit slow today, so gave them a bottle of colostrum.

Born so far-
9 rams
7 ewes
-----


I have to keep Sebastian ewelings, as he is sold.
3 ewes from him so far.
3 to lamb.

-----

I think I was either going to sell Krillin now or give him lots of ewes and then sell him next year.
3 ewes from him so far.
3 to lamb.
One ewe is Lucy, spotted. Her lamb will be a carrier or maybe spotted.


--------
There's 3 spot carrier rams available, QR, OEBSR+BSSBA.

There's 3 white rams available, RR, 3× registries.

There's 3 black rams available, RR, 3× registries.


------

2 due to lamb by Apostle. Carriers or spotted lambs.

2 due to lamb by Oreo. Carriers or spotted lambs.

3 due to lamb by Magnemite. Carriers or spotted.


------

Then 3 rams were put with all ewes after breeding season. Magnemite, Apostle & Magmar. I'll have to send in tissue samples to DNA test their lambs, if any are born.


If I hadn't of put rams back in, I'd be half done with lambing already. Lol
