[QUOTE="james-stephens2014, post: 7356746, member: 64478"] Hi all Very wet here! Got the sheep sorted into their bunches based on scan result (and BCS for the odd fat/thin ones).... Thinking about getting the triplets in but worried it's a bit early.... How do I stop them getting to lazy and not lambing well? Or is that a myth? Diet wise they will be on the normal 18% concentrate starting at 0.5kg once per day and eventually ramping up to 0.75kg twice a day (triplets remember!)... They also have haylage/silage pretty much adlib, and this year I am going to put a rack of straw out for them, hopefully slow them up on the silage a bit and something to chew on.... It's just so wet and next week doesn't look any better. Thank you in advance! [/QUOTE]
