Ewes are due...T-0 Weeks

So...this should technically be the last post before lambs, BUT I can't make any promises. The earliest possible lambing date is March 30th according to an online ewe gestation calculator, and, unless Clover didn't take, she is due April 4th. So I'm hoping for lambs by Easter, but I always over-anticipate lambing, so we'll see what we get.

Here are the girls, hopefully for the last time before lambs, in my best-guess reverse order for lambing...
Kira - A 4 year-old ewe who twinned (ram and ewe) last year.

Poa - A 7 year-old ewe who has twinned twice on our farm (twin ewes '11, twin rams '10).

Crystal - A 3 year-old ewe who twinned (rams) last year.

Mocha - A 4 year-old ewe who twinned (ram and ewe) last year.

Clover - A 4 year-old ewe who singled (ram) last year and twinned (ram and ewe) in '10.

Wynona - A 6 year-old ewe who twinned (ewe and ram) in '10 at our farm and had previous lambings.

Maggie - Wynona's 2 year-old; a first-time lamber.

The next post will be in one week, or sooner if lambs arrive.
