Wolfemomma - Our Homestead Journey

[Baymule]

Good luck getting your order. We are right at a month behind you for our first lambs.

Maxwell's first lambs? I can't wait to see them!

Maxwell's first lambs? I can't wait to see them!

They will be his first ones. I still think Percy got to our 54 ewe but we'll see soon. It doesn't matter though since most will be terminal this season.

Nothing makes me happier then fat happy ewes munching away on hay and fresh clean stalls

More snow today...yay for plowing. Lamb watch officially starts tomorrow....I keep checking them all constantly lol
Other then that, not much else new, decided to start planning the spring garden, figuring out what to plant and when to start them indoors. I think im going to start my tomatoes much earlier this year. Last year I started them way to late.

Lamb watch is so exciting! When you finally give up and go to bed, they get busy and surprise you the next morning. LOL

They should come today, I understand there is a snow storm in your area ;D

 

[WolfeMomma]

No lambs yesterday, Maybe today? I haven't been out to the barn yet. I feel like they have looked close to going for a while. Im starting to think Im not that good at guessing

Lamb Watch Day 2:
Still no Lambs.......
The temps are going to be warm ( like 35-40) for the next couple days, would be a perfect time to lamb..... But of course
they will wait till it drops to -5 and a giant snow storm

I have 2 ewes that bag up THREE WEEKS before lambing. Poor things look like they are squeezing a volley ball between their back legs. Drives me nuts. I feel your anxiety, but it will be ok.

Of course they will!
