At this rate you'll be done before me

Doubt it, we'll get down to about 10 then it'll be same pace as yours, scanner said there'll be a couple at end of May

It's that horrible "She's in lamb but it's so early I can't tell how many" call. Got one of those myself this year too. Can't be as late as end May though as tup came out in December (I think, I hope)..

 

[hill shepherd]

I'll be happy if we're done in May, there's usually some in June

Had 3 twins and a single since Thursday - only 2 left to go. And they should lamb this week

Another today, 5 ta go

5 inside.......
7 outside......

It's dragging on a bit now

I think lambing #3 has started. Still have a handful hoggs (things which I didn't manage to get walking before lambing or had wonky legs and really need put down)... 3 of them are running with lambs today

Must be some Welshmen going about because I'm sure I had kept the bloody tups away from them

Well, IIRC, you were toying with the idea of lambing some hoggs. Should be able to work out if you made the right decision

D'you reckon you missed castrating a tup lamb last year

He missed summat or had a really heavy night on the whiskey

 

[Gator]

Don't regret not tipping the ewe hoggs. This winter it'd have been a disaster.

These Muppets are doing alright, they've spat their lambs out and seem to have milk. I'm staying totally hands off!

Aye there would be a rig running or a tup lamb I missed no doubt. Lambs are decent looking actually
