Shula guessed the weight of the little ewe exactly! Guess that's what happens when you keep such good records. She said 6 pounds, 9 ounces was the average size of the lambs in her flock this year. Now I'm embarrassed to admit that this is the first time I have ever weighed a lamb, so I was really surprised how heavy she was. They weigh so much more than my baby goats! Shula, send me an email, (deborah) at antiquity oaks dot com, and let me know whether you want the roving or massage oil and which color or fragrance.
I can't say for sure whether we're done with lambing since this was all the result of a renegade ram. There is another ewe that looks a little wide, but we'll just have to wait and see.

Congrats to Shula! I have to admit I've never weighed my lambs, either, so was totally guessing.
Wow that is so cool. Thank you. This is only my third year with sheep so I am paranoid and weigh all my lambs at birth (or when I find them). Thanks again.
