Ive put my lambs from this year back with their mums until Im ready to send the boys off (March born lambs). They were weaned off their mums in July and kept apart for 3/4 weeks while the mums dried off, then all put back in the same field. Ive got 1 ewe lamb who still suckles briefly and occasionally from her mum, she's the only one that does this.
My question is, is this going to be a problem come tupping time as Im planning on tupping both mum and daughter (daughter is at least, if not bigger than mum now)? Will it stop mum from cycling? (they are both in good condition). Mum and daughter are zwartble x ryeland.
Thanks for any thoughts on this
