Lambs Any Time Now ......
We had a single Rambouillet ewe lamb born yesterday and then a single crossbred ram lamb this morning. Both were still out in the pasture this evening, but were brought in when one of the pregnant ewes started paying too much attention to them. A sure sign of impending lambing! Well, as I write this at 10PM, she has started to go into labor, so we'll be out tonight to check on her. It's supposed to T-storm with possible hail & dropping temps, so we'll bring her into the barn after she delivers. No sense trying to move a ewe who has started into labor ..... they want to go back to where they think their lamb might be, so it just causes anxiety. No, we'll wait it out ......
