Sorry if this is very daft- I'm not very practical and have never done this before!
So, we have now made a pretty swish looking maternity unit out of our sheep shelter- complete with farrowing bar! We have divided it so that it can house our 2 girls who are due sometime soon. The third girl is about 3 weeks behind.
Our current thought is the the first two move into their individual quarters in the adapted shelter and that the third girl stays in the arc.
My question is this- do we shut the girls who are about to farrow in, or leave them to use the outside area as they wish? Will they naturally separate or all return to the arc? Sorry if this is dumb.....
