Getting Ready for Lambing




That time of the year again.  My ewes all in their shed waiting the arrival of their lambs.  Hopefully we will have a few by this time next week.  I will be glad when we get started and even happier when it is all over.   The girls seem content in their house.  I took this first thing in the morning so they are all waiting for their breakfast.   I may say feeding them is quite a performance as they sweep me off my feet.   As they lamb they get moved out of the shed into a 'lamb pod' so that there is no miss mothering and when the lambs are strong enough I let them out in the paddock close to the yard where I can keep an eye on them
