We are well into the movement of sheep to manage the grazing. Currently we are running 4 separate groups of sheep, ewes with lambs, pregnant ewes, yearling ewes and all the rams. The yearlings are being used as lawnmowers all around the house. Pregnant ewes are being moved back behind the house so they are close at hand for the lambing. Only 5 to go but looks like only 1 ewe is actually pregnant. Ewes with lambs are currently at the top of the orchard, they will be combined with the yearlings as soon as lawnmower duties are finished. Rams are all in a bunch down in the far front pear orchard pasture. They will end up being on hay when we run out of grass as we don’t have that many places that have ram suitable fencing.
