Twenty. Twenty lambs out of twelve ewes. That’s a 166.7% lambing average. Which is phenomenal for me.
Last night it was Hettie having a set of ewe/ram-dark/white twins.
They are healthy and happy and as my dad likes to say, “Goers”.
This morning it was Diana’s turn to have her first lamb, a very healthy little ram lamb who looks like a party on four legs.
Twelve ewes lambing means that I am 3/5 of the way through lambing. Of the eight ewes expecting, three are first-timers and the remainder are experienced ewes. The new lambs are perfectly 50/50 ewe/ram percentage so far.
