Other ewe seems to be starting labor. Guess she was pretending not to be so close. Gonna have to think of more names soon!

Cotton is almost 9yrs old, she had triplets and have P as the first letter. Could continue P names with Blanka's lambs, not sure if I can think up enough of them. Blanka is near 7yrs old. The ram, Bouncy, is 1mo away from being 2yrs old.

Really? Must of been the warm Winter and the never ending grass, lol. Fed them the pellets a bit early.




And then I also gave the CDT shot too early. Should I wait until 4-6wks and then another 2-4wks for their booster or give them it now and wait 4 & 2wks for boosters?

When did you give it to them? I forgot. More than 4 weeks ago? You can pretty much vaccinate whenever you want, and give the booster 3-4 weeks later. I would make sure if you vaccinate before 8 weeks, that they get at least 1 more booster after that.

Ugh, I donno. Other thread seems to show it was around the end of January.
Guess I can wait until I'm sure the lambs are active and bouncing around. Don't want to stress everyone too soon. Though, I have been watching them, talking to them and handling them a tad when they "loose" mom and are too freaked out to walk the 20ft back to her, lol!
