I'm no good at the who's gonna lamb when game. Yesterday, my dad and I were moving in ewes who looked close to lambing into the little pen. A half hour later a ewe lambed out in the big pen....As far as I know none of the ewes we moved have lambed

Wow! I guess anything is possible. Just kinda waiting now, im just sooo anxious!

To solve the guessing game ... simple fix : USE A MARKING HARNESS ON THE RAM AT THE START OF THE BREEDING SEASON AND WRITE DOWN THE DATES THE EWES ARE MARKED ADD 5 MONTHS AND BINGO !

Guessing is more fun. Then we are just guessing around the possible date still anyway

This is what mammy looks like atm. Its the closest thing I could find The only thing is her udder size its still like the size of my palm.

I guess I get overly anxious and excited, I feel like Im annoying everyone xD!

Not annoyed, but perhaps amused Especially since this is only my third lambing season, so I well remember all the excitement and worry of the first times. And it's still exciting, I've just gotten (a little) better at saving my energy till when it gets closer.

Since you know you have at least a few more weeks before her possible first lambing date, take it easy, make sure you give her her vaccination soon if you haven't already, make sure she doesn't get too fat, and get lots and lots of sleep to make up for the sleep you're going to lose checking on her later

No one is annoyed! And you will find that you can only be out there all night for a limited number of nights without sleep, and in the cold!!! And of course no one would back their minivan up to the lambing pen, lift the back open...and freeze and snooze in the back of that thing, right???? LOLOL...some of us have done crazy things the first few lambing seasons...LOL....<blushing>
