Last year, for her first lambing (from a Jacob tup) my Lleyn ewe lambe two weeks earlier than the raddle mark would have suggested. This year,(Hampshire tup) with three weeks to go, she is beginning to bag up already, so she could easily lamb two weeks early again. I was just wondering if it is a breed specific characteristic to have a 19 week gestation or if it just happens with some sheep. Thank you for your thoughts.
