A cold front came through at daybreak. By 9:30 we got over and inch of rain. Man, we needed it.
We have noticed that weather changes seem to cause lambs.
Ewe # 59 and a single ewe lamb tagged 46.
Ewe #414, who we call grandma because she is the mother of our black breeding ram, had twin ewe lambs tagged 47 and 48.
These lambs are the first “Holstein” lambs of the season.
Ewe #6, who spends most of her time training the other sheep to go through electric fences, had a single ewe lamb we tagged number 49.
She had it on the wrong side of the fence of course.
Ewe #1, my bride’s special pet, had twins. One ewe lamb tagged 50 and a ram lamb tagged 51.
All this before noon.
