Scanning tomorrow but wanted some advice.

I have a fat looking ewe, turned her over to do her feet yesterday and she has a bag, felt her teats and they are soft, as is the bag- but she was uncomfortable with me touching the teats. Tup did get in with her so potentially pregnant but is this pointing more towards mastitis as opposed to pregnant?

You will find out for certain tomorrow ??  If she had mastitis then teats or udder would be hard or lumpy

I've got a week-old lamb at the mo...

Nigel, he of the Ever-Ready Golden Balls, got in with the pregnant ladies in spring, a couple of weeks before lambing.  We didn't worry, they were all pregnant... 

Except, Flicka and Misty weren't. 

So now Flicka has a lamb in September, and he has no pals his own age.  (Misty obviously didn't cycle while Nigel was with them.)  The lamb seems happy enough though, and we'd got Flicka booked to go off cull, so she's happy!  (Misty was getting another chance, but Flicka is that sheep always goes the other way, so we'd decided to cull her as she was geld.  Nigel saved her life, I tell her!)

Apologies for the late update!! TWINS!!!!!! tiny, born in the field and she'd cleaned them up lovely when I found them. I am usually so precise about feed/vaccination etc with my pregnant ewes so she has had no TLC at all- Over the moon that all okay!
