Hi there
I thought I would put some photos up of my Chunky Monkies for anyone who doesnt know what a Charmoise is and some photos of the rest of the gang, I'm still waiting on 10 ewes to lamb, a couple look like they might pop tonight, the rest maybe over the weekend.
I have one ewe who when she lies down is showing a vaginal prolapse, not sure what to do as it doesnt show when she is stood up at all and she is due on the 3rd (tomorrow) just going to keep an eye out for ringwomb I think
she had a giant single last year which died and I think it damaged her insides maybe
I have 4 first timers in my barn as they may be in the lamb to the wrong ram (my fault) and there is no way on earth I could catch them in the field if they need help, the rest lamb outside, including 1 first timer whom I think will be fine if she gets a big lamb
My Charmoise lambs are growing like weeds, they havnt had any food or creep and the biggest now weighs just under 10kg at nearly 3 weeks of age, so very proud of them
I will take them to my bigger field down the road this weekend with anything else that has lambed/has lambs to get some better grass.
Big boy!!!!
