So, I went abit daft... I've got 50 TexX ewes standing in isolation
Iv also got another 20 aged TexX ewes running amongst my commercials I bought one year I was short of numbers... so there's 70 in total!
The gimmers need vaccinated for Enzi. Got the vaccine this afternoon, doing them tomorrow. Theyl be clear to go to the ram asof 29th September, and I'm tempted to turn one in on the 1st October.
What tup do you all suggest? I'm cautious about using Texel - the existing ewes can be more problematic lambing then the Lleyns, don't mind helping the odd ewe - but not 70!! I could use a Lleyn, but terminal is the aim of the game...
Mind on, I'm lambing outside! So what do you all suggest? I've got my popcorn ready
