well, it's about time!!
« on: May 19, 2016, 11:30:28 pm »
Having planned for my 10 ewes to lamb in April, the first gave birth on 30th March; no.9 on 22nd April, and no. 10 finally gave birth at 7.30pm today to a single girl - unless she's still hanging on to one. I've spent the last month trying to decide if she really was pregnant or just  a 'phantom' pregnancy - I was sorely tempted to send her and her companion out into the big field with the other ewes and their lambs but it looks like I made the right decision and kept them close  :relief: .


Final result: 6 boys, 9 girls.


I can have a lie in tomorrow.

congrats and well done, that is a good result! I hope it all works out very well for you. :)
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

Don't wrestle with pigs, they will love it and you will just get all muddy.

Let go of who you are and become who you are meant to be.
