Texel Female
« on: December 09, 2014, 08:09:44 pm »
Im looking for info regarding delayed pregnacy in a texel ewe 19months old. She has had milk or pre milk for atleast 5 months and she still doesnt seem to be either getting any bigger or labouring in her daily chores . After seeing her Male partner sniffing around today ( warm early winter weather) it got me thinking  !!! :-\ Is she really pregnant or just really fat from a very green  season ? br Avitum

Probly just an over-fat texel  :thumbsup:

we see loads of them, they like to roll over and wave legs in the air when they reach ultimate fatness

Too big a fat deposit can cause hormonal changes.

Google a phrase like "hormonal imbalances caused by excess adipose tissue in animals" and you'll get loads of fascinating stuff.
