Awesome! So that means at least 10-12 more lambs for you (maybe 16)!BrownSheep said:Goooood question....Let me count and I'll let you know
ETA: 8 that are for certain. The ewe lambs from last year could be due closer towards summer since they have been running with them. they were all born in May, I think, so I am kind of hoping they aren't.... And then there is always useless Emma....We actually thought she was aborting again today, but apparently not....She could always surprise us.
She does look funny. Ever since she was a kitten she's been a scrawny little thing. That's why she didn't get fixed in Summer 2011--she was too tiny (they had to be like 4 or 5 lbs and she weighed 2 or 3 lbs). And whenever it's reallyyy cold out she always wants to come in the house. We let her in for a few minutes but she usually wants to go back outside after that.Meat Goats said:

I know! lol. Well today is day 142 for Ali. She's not going to lamb today, and I don't think she will lamb tomorrow (even though I work 5 hrs in the morning and have the rest of the day off!). Her vulva has gotten pinker (yesterday it was more purple), but it's not pink enough for me to say "YES she's gonna have a baby." So maybe she will lamb Thursday or Friday or Saturday. Sometime over the weekend.

SheepGirl, I will be waiting for those pictures too when they arrive, no excuses from you , I hope from one sheep farmer to another that you have no less than healthy twins out of each ewe, triplets are nice but healthy twins are GREAT.

I know! lol we are on day 143, the day she (and Ciqala) both produced twin ewe lambs last year. Checked her vulva this morning (it's hidden by her wool so I have to catch her and put her in a corner and restrain her with my leg up against the fence while bending behind her checking out her who-ha lol), looks the same as it did yesterday :/ So my guess is no babies today and no babies tomorrow. Stinks because having babies today or tomorrow would've been perfect! :/

Rule #1 in pregnant sheep - they never lamb when it is convenient for the humans!
