Would it be possible that this is a missed abortion? We had a cow that went into labor and just simply couldnt get the calf out. After finally getting a vet to agree to come out he did nothing but charge us an $800 bill for sleeving her and letting us know she might or might not expel the...

Thank you! He is handsome. I am giving them time with momma before I mess with them. I saw the white one nurse a small amount but want to check them again. With 9 inches of snow its a workout to get to the shed.

BONBEAN that lamb is adorable!! We just had two more this morning. I think mom is finished but I am giving her a little more time just in case!

The first picture is the wool ewe and the second picture shows Bambi the lighter color brown with her head facing the shed. Bambi is the one I think is very close. She was laying down and stretching her head. She really doesnt want us around her or even close to her right now.

I have another hair ewe that I think is getting close. 2 nights ago she had some blood on her woman parts. Not a lot but enough to see. Her milk looks very full and her belly seems to have dropped. Anyone have a time frame guess? We expecting another snow storm here tomorrow evening/night...

Still waiting on Bambi to have her lamb(s). I put her up just a little while ago because I noticed some blood on her vulva. Tonight??? I am not sure. I also have a wool sheep Cagney that has a VERY swollen woman part and making a nice milk sack but she is not ready yet. And I have another...

YEAHHH!!! I am anxiously still waiting on more babies! Next few days look good for weather. Id rather have a little rain than these brutally cold temps we have been having. Your babies are soo cute. My lambs are now 5 1/2weeks old. Do I give them CD&T vaccinations at 6 weeks? They still...

How cold is it? This year is getting to be too much with the cold weather!!! We are 18 above right now but supposed to go back to 12 below 0F with wind chills in the -40's. Congrats!! I am still waiting on Bambi(hair ewe) and now Cagney(Wool ewe) is very swollen and her milk is coming in.

May I ask how cold it is there? We are in the middle of another polar vortex here in central Indiana and I have two ewes that could go any day. I am so very nervous!

I bet MaryEllen will lamb within 24 hours or so

No babies here. Ive got to go out to the pasture and feed/check soon. Parsnip my ewe Bambi look like Wendy in the belly area. I would have sworn she dropped. I also have another hair ewe named Angel that looks like Dolly but absolutely no udder formation she is just HUGE and ROUND. I also...

I will get a picture of Bambi today. I just checked on her at first light and she is really sunk in at her hips, but she is up walking around. She has kept her distance from the others the last few days. My wool girls were so easy to tell when they were getting ready last year because they...

One of my ewes who has lambed before at the previous owners has a very nice milk sack coming in as well as she has been holding her tail out for a couple days. I have been stalking her to see if she is hold it out to pee or poop. Nothing! I am guessing she will lamb within a week or two...

Thank you all! I still have them up in the shed with momma. They nurse everytime she stand up. lol. They are a week old today and seem to be doing well. The littler of the two likes to jump around a lot. I plan to leave them up until I baby proof the entrance gate since it us simply a tube...

So finally Brownie had her twin lambs!! They were born 12/23/2013 at 11pm and 1145pm and of course it was 6 degrees outside with a windchill of -8. But they seem to be doing well. They have little dog sweaters on...lol...my husband lost that battle. They are jumping around all over the pen...

Babies are coming right now!! One is here and she is working on another! Its only twenty degrees out but they have wind blocks on every side. The first baby is up and wanting to nurse. Anything else they need right now?

Our vet does the pour on dewormer for all of our cattle once a year.(angus). I prefer to use Ivomec injectable just because I know when I give the shot the cow/calf is getting the medicine. I wonder how much of the pour on actually gets absorbed. We also had a family friend that swore by...

I just went to the shed to check on Brownie and she was laying in the shed up next to a straw bale. She stood up when she saw me(our hair sheep are nervous around people). I lifted her tail and she is VERY swollen and pink. By the time I walked up to the house she was back in the shed. I am...
