[QUOTE="Nithsdale, post: 6095388, member: 17508"] Day has been really nice here. No risk of rain, warm and the fields are getting a chance to dry out! It's to be good all week looking at the Met Office app - except Friday which at the moment is looking quite wet. Finished the day with nothing in the TexX's, another 4 twins and 2 more singles in the hill ewes taking them upto 11 lambed today and there were another 5 twins and I think it was 3 singles in the commercials taking them up to 14 today... certainly did not feel like 25 ewes lambed :eek: The singles are pretty big in the commercials :oops::banghead: I've had to help with a few. Those ewes have somehow gotten fat as hell, too, in the last fortnight! I'll be coming up for 1/4 of the way into lambing now, I think - I'm guessing around 130-140 ewes lambed (out of 600), 90ish twins running and 40-50 singles - with very, very few triplets so far. No doubt this will run like last year did and the spare lambs will come late through lambing :rolleyes: hopefully this year they will not be needed in such demand, but a few early would have been nice - I could have put 2 lambs on some ewes instead of just 1... the next 10-14 days I will be very busy (y) [/QUOTE]
