Looks like it won't be too long before the patter of tiny hooves.
Lambs grow very fast in the last 4-6 weeks and squash the stomach such that there's no room for bulky foods (and a bigger liking for concentrated feed).
All ewes seem to be grumpy during the last few weeks of pregnancy.....as Parsnip says...who can blame them.
Good Luck.
I'm just so excited for lambs!
That would make sense with her just wanting the grain mostly then! (plus I'm sure it's tasty to them)
Also I just got back from town and checked on the ewes.
Wendy' vulva is a bit goopy?
I mean, not like a big glob hanging there, but it's clear and just... like shiny on her lady bits?
I'm going to assume this is normal.
You are going to love having lambs!!!! Our little guy is just so bouncy and full of energy and I watch him and just laugh at his antics!!! He could use some lambie friends...wish I'd see more goopy lady parts on the next two that I thought would have lambed already.
He is beautiful Bonbean!!!! I am soooo excited to see your lamb pics when Wendy finally lambs Parsnip!!!!!! I have 2 Kadahdin ewes (Lily and Cookie) who are going to lamb anyday too!!! The first of the year!
Thanks Four Winds...we think him pretty special too and really wish he was a SHE!
His Mama is Katahdin and his Papa is Dorper...wondered what kind of colours we'd get...he needs friends, and have two that I thought would have lambed already...still waiting.
