We are once again participating in the USDA NAGP research project for non-surgical AI in sheep. We synchronized the ewes, then teased them through the fence with the live rams. All 24 experimental ewes were very interested!
Fortunately, the coming storm held off until after the big insemination day. Now, we have a lot of snow, and our last grazable pasture is being used by the replacement ewe lambs and butcher ewes. They all have hay as well, but they seem to enjoy going out and digging under the snow for the last of the green grass.
