Some of my ewes are in lamb, others not. They are all together in the field. Good grass for time of year. No males.
I've noticed that they seem to be bickering - running along, pushing each other, headbutting, sometimes pushing and putting front feet up on others backs (usually from the side). By the time I get there they've spotted me and stopped to come to me, so I can't see exactly which are doing what.
It's something they do on and off, fine with each other 90% of the time.
Can anyone throw any light on this behaviour?
