Something for the Lambing Shed
« on: February 12, 2017, 04:58:45 pm »
With lambing fast approaching, we've decided to get organised early this year.

Last year we had far too many broken nights sleep and 3am lambings. I think I've found the answer though. What do you think?

Hmm.
I think perhaps there should be printed clock faces with the times displayed, in case there's a ewe who can't read  :eyelashes:

Can you do me a NO KIDDING one?  It's nearly 1 am and I think I am about to spend the night in the goat shed.

I have no idea. But if it doesn't, at least I can now take the moral high ground and tut a lot, which will go some way to cheering me up.

I think you should have gone for reverse psychology- had a notice permitting lambing ONLY between those hours - the sheep would then see this and lamb during the day just to defy your directive!  :roflanim: :roflanim:

Or lamb outside where you don't disturb them after dark.
