[QUOTE="west coast angus, post: 7267284, member: 2665"] Understand it will take time for you to breed sheep that will do on your ground, and to be fair they did produce a good crop of lambs, but I will be very surprised if they do it this year. I would say a ewe has to hold condition in our parts, with the cost of feed etc and the longer you keep the feed bag away the better! But if your happy to feed them hard from now on, then fair enough. Do you condition score your ewes? I Would give them the works, and then let them go too the hill, best place for ewes at this time of year, give them some buckets that are high in urea to help them utilise the rough forage. If it fails at least you know not to do the same thing next year. [/QUOTE]
