The ewes and lambs are doing well. All of the lambs are of very good quality, but we still have a lot of ewes yet to lamb. Some of the lambs are learning about the electric fences, while others just look cute as they rest.
This lamb is Rambo. He is now on mom number four, Ken, who has been the only one able to get him to drink. We don’t have many bottle lambs here – he’s just our tenth in 12 years – so we’re not overly experienced with raising them. Rambo was upside down and backwards inside his mom, and by the time I got him out, he wasn’t breathing. Ken got him going, and when he stopped breathing several times, Ken got him going again. So now, Ken has a small woolly child. Rambo is fortunately doing well now.
We’re getting another internal divider fence built, and this is where it will go. We had to move the gated pipe to give Larry room to build. The fence should be done by the end of July.
