The breeding of the mature ewes is almost done.
Just a few ewes remaining.
Our
rams, Baffin, Gustov and BuBuKat, will get another try with these unbred ewes as
they will all join the batch of the ewes born last spring.
We have divided our mature ewes into two groups.
One group will be mated with the ram Baffin and the other with BuBuKat.
The average weight of the ewes is 167 lbs.
Next month we will expose our 2014 lamb ewes to these rams
