I normally drop the ewes in fresh growth from the hay fields 3 or so weeks before the tup goes in, however with little to no growth of grass and some ewes are still looking thin.
Do I feed them some grain to help them on, I don’t have a 3 in 1 feeder but I can feed it in troughs or run it on the grass off the quad, will this be benifical or will the feeding time stress not benefit them?
Do I move them to a fresh field of nothing?
We have a half decent lambing rate but with a tough winter and spring then a drought it’s been a hard time for them with little good grass
