We bred 71 ewes in 3 groups, one group for each of our rams. There is only one ewe left to lamb and she does not look pregnant.

We have 122 live lambs; about an even mix of ewes and rams.

There are several ewes that will be culled before breeding in the fall; the ewe with the broken leg/mastitis, many of the ewes that only had singles, and a ewe we believe that has gone blind (and her twins).
