Such an awesome feeling to get a group of ewes on pasture

At the end of day 7, 88 ewes have lambed. To say we have been busy is an understatement! Lambing average is at roughly 1.6 which we are happy with, only 3 lambs have been pulled off mothers to be bottle fed. This will be a nice tight uniform group for us to sell. It is a team effort for sure!

45 ewes have dropped lambs in less than 3 days. These dorper/katahdin ewes were bred by purebred white dorper rams but are still throwing a lot of color

Our ewes from Wyoming have started dropping lambs. We were not expecting lambs until May 1st but someone was off on there dates 🫢 lambing rate is at a 1.8 so no complaints! Only 350 or so in this group to go

A surprise this morning with our 2nd set of quads this year, while 2 of these lambs will have to be pulled off the ewe and supplemented it’s still impressive to see mothers do this and get them all up and going. Owen also wanted to show everyone his new barn cat!

Don’t worry the little black and white lamb at the end is ok, he just tripped 🤣

These 35-45lb lambs were born at the end of January/beginning of February, meaning there gaining well over a pound of body weight a day. Starting these lambs on creep so young plays a huge factor in there growth

Lots of perks to the job and this is one of them, one of our favorite things to see every year

More and more lambing action, some of these katahdin ewes were bred by black faced dorper rams and the color is really showing through
