Good way of getting shot of them if you sell them with lambs.Mule ewes with twins at 3 crop look to good to keep around for me (and helps the cash flow) so sell a load of them every spring. I have ended up with 100’s of broken mouth ewes this year, but they should be ok on cover crops and liquid feed if needs be. The better half of these will be sold with lambs.
Plenty of molasses and or chopped beet is a good way to stop them going off their feet in the six weeks up to lambing.
