April is lambing season. We bred our ewes last November and the lambs are due anytime between March 29 and May 6th. It's now Day 20 of Lamb Watch & no lambs yet. They are showing signs that lambs will come soon, but does that mean today or tomorrow or next week....So we continue the Lamb Watch with anxious anticipation.
The pasture grass is growing. The sheep are enjoying some fresh tender grass to suppliment their diet of dry hay. They do make the perfect lawn mowers. The second paddock looks like we took a mower over it, so I've moved the sheep down into the third paddock so they can 'mow' that area now.
