[QUOTE="will6910, post: 4274028, member: 847"] Currently having a little think/worry, I have 135 ewes and 36 ewe lambs to tup this year. Ewes are all at home and ewe lambs. On 35 acres. Have 45 fat lambs to at home. I have roughly 70 on another 15 acre block. Have sold lambs in Mart last two weeks but still plenty lambs left for the time of year. I have 30 ewes on a field to flush for a week now as couldn't bale it with rain. Haven't got slurry or fert out for months cause of ground situation. My original plan was to flush ewes on 31st September an Rams out on the 14th October. Just wondering what best options I have to keep that plan and have best grass I can. Ewes are on 2 fields with little grass and there pretty dirty now. Fat lambs at both places are getting creep feed. I can take maximum of 25 lambs each Saturday on trailer to Mart so be few weeks of Marts ahead yet. Sorry for long winded and I'm sure confusing post but not really getting anywhere in my head at min and thought I'd ask here Thanks [/QUOTE]
